Collision detection and tissue modeling in a VR-simulator for eye surgery
Authors: Clemens Wagner, Markus A. Schill, Reinhard Männer
Venue: Proceedings of the workshop on Virtual environments 2002 (2002)

This paper gives a survey of techniques for tissue interaction and discusses their application in the context of the intra-ocular training system EyeSi. As key interaction techniques collision detection and soft tissue modeling are identified. For collision detection in EyeSi, an enhanced image-based approach for collisions between deformable surfaces and rigid objects is presented. By exploiting the computing power of graphics processing units, it achieves higher performance than existing geometry-based approaches. Deformation vectors are computed and used for the biomechanical model. A mass-spring approach is shown to be powerful enough to bridge the gap between low computational demands and a convincing tissue behavior.
Outlier finding: focusing user attention on possible errors
Authors: Robert C. Miller, Brad A. Myers
Venue: Proceedings of the 14th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology (2001)

When users handle large amounts of data, errors are hard to notice. Outlier finding is a new way to reduce errors by directing the user's attention to inconsistent data which may indicate errors. We have implemented an outlier finder for text, which can detect both unusual matches and unusual mismatches to a text pattern. When integrated into the user interface of a PBD text editor and tested in a user study, outlier finding substantially reduced errors.
On the computation of elementary divisors of integer matrices
Authors: Frank Lübeck
Venue: Journal of Symbolic Computation (2002)

We describe a "semi-modular' algorithm which computes for a given integer matrix A of known rank and a given prime p the multiplicities of p in the factorizations of the elementary divisors of A. Here "semi-modular' means that we apply operations to the integer matrix A but the operations are driven by considering only reductions of row vectors modulo p. Copyright 2002 Academic Press
UNIX Clearly Explained, 1st edition
Authors: Richard L. Petersen
Venue:  (1998)

:Unix Clearly Explained is a complete tutorial introduction to the use and programming of the Unix operating system. Unix is known as one of the most flexible operating systems, and one of the most difficult to master. To many potential users, Unix can appear outright hostile. Much of this hostility is the result of disorientation that occurs when a user is faced with a multitude of commands. As you begin to learn Unix, it is very easy to become lost, resulting in a situation where you have little or no idea of how anything works. This text presents a working model for the major features of Unix. Once you have a familiar model to work from, it is easy to explore the many features of Unix in depth, as needed. Once you know Unix, you will find it intriguingly powerful and versatile.
Fragmented and replicated objects in the GOTHIC distributed system
Authors: J. P. Banâtre, M. Banâtre, P. Lecler, F. Ployette, P. Le Certen
Venue: Proceedings of the 3rd workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshop: Autonomy or interdependence in distributed systems? (1988)

In a distributed computing system, it is necessary to manage so-called distributed data made out of several fragments located on different nodes. At the user level, this data is perceived as indivisible, i.e., fragments cannot be exchanged independently. However, at the system level, it is necessary to provide concepts which make it possible to describe fragmentation, while forbidding user accesses to fragments.This note introduces the notion of fragmented object and the concept of multi-function which allows the atomic and concurrent processing of these objects. It is also shown how these concepts are introduced in an object-oriented language which is an extention of Modula-2.
Design of dependable computing systems
Authors: Jean-Claude Geffroy, Gilles Motet
Venue:  (2002)

Today computing systems are more and more complex and they assume more and more responsibilities in all sectors of human activity. Unfortunately, many faults can harm the development or the use of these products. Destructive mechanisms transform faults into errors and finally failures altering the delivered service. For critical systems, the consequences of these failures can be catastrophic, but for most non-critical systems, failures are nowadays unacceptable. Hence, it is necessary to take dependability attributes into account, along the product lifecycle. This book aims at providing a general overview of the dependability of computing systems: impairments and protective means. Issues, concepts and techniques are considered from a system point of view, and are illustrated by both hardware and software technologies.

Automating the transformation of XML documents
Authors: Hong Su, Harumi Kuno, Elke A. Rundensteiner
Venue: Proceedings of the 3rd international workshop on Web information and data management (2001)

The advent of web services that use XML-based message exchanges has spurred many efforts that address issues related to inter-enterprise service electronic commerce interactions. Currently emerging standards and technologies enable enterprises to describe and advertise their own Web Services and to discover and determine how to interact with services fronted by other businesses. However, these technologies do not address the problem of how to reconcile structural differences between similar types of documents supported by different enterprises. Transformations between such documents must thus be created manually on a case-by-case basis. In this paper, we explore the problem of how to automate the transformation of XML E-business documents. We develop an integrated solution that automates as much as possible all steps of the document transformation process. One, we propose a set of schema transformation operations that establish semantic relationships between two XML document schemas. Two, we define a model that allows us to compare the cost of performing these operations. Three, we introduce an algorithm that discovers an efficient sequence of operations for transforming a source document schema into a target document schema based on our cost model. The operation sequence then is used to generate an equivalent XSLT transformation script. Experimental results indicate that our algorithm can satisfactorily discover acceptable transformations.
