A mobile remote data collection and graphics display station
Authors: John G. Miles
Venue: ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics (1976)

A low cost graphic and data collection facility consisting of a storage tube display, plotter, digital multimeter, floppy disc, calculator and BCD instrumentation interface has been built into a single, mobile unit. Laboratory data may be collected automatically by recording the output of the low speed digital multimeter or medium speed BCD DMA interface in calculator memory and then buffering the data to either floppy disc or tape cassette. The data can be summarized and displayed immediately on the CRT or plotter by the calculator using programs available on a floppy disc resident library. Alternatively, the data can be routed to one of two timesharing computer systems at speeds up to 9600 baud where 2-D and 3-D software packages and large application libraries can be used to construct more sophisticated displays for presentation interactively on the CRT. Various applications appropriate to a university environment are discussed. A similar facility at the Sacramento offices of the Army Corps of Engineers used for flood information reporting is also described.

Multidimensional data modeling for location-based services
Authors: Christian S. Jensen, Augustas Kligys, Torben Bach Pedersen, Igor Timko
Venue: Proceedings of the 10th ACM international symposium on Advances in geographic information systems (2002)

With the recent and continuing advances in areas such as wireless communications and positioning technologies, mobile, location-based services are becoming possible. % Such services deliver loca\-tion-dependent content to their users. More specifically, these services may capture the movements of their users in multidimensional databases, and their delivery of content in response to user requests may be based on the issuing of complex, multidimensional queries. The application of multidimensional technology in this and other contexts poses a range of new challenges. This paper aims to provide an appropriate multidimensional data model. In particular, the paper extends an existing multidimensional data model to accommodate spatial values that exhibit partial containment relationships instead of the total containment relationships normally assumed in multidimensional data models.
Computer graphics around the world: computer graphics in China: an overview
Authors: Jiaoying Shi, Zhigeng Pan
Venue: ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics (2001)

Computer graphics has become an important discipline in both academia and industry, and an enabling technology for a broad variety of applications such as engineering (CAD, CAE and CAM), geographic information systems (GIS), publishing, office applications, games and the filmmaking industry. Graphics is also integrated to Internet application systems, and graphics and image techniques are combined together in some special applications. Computer graphics can no longer be regarded as a confined discipline devoted solely to graphics standards or traditional techniques of 3D representations and rendering. The influence of computer graphics and its related techniques can be felt in almost all of today's key industrial areas, wherever computers are employed.Computer graphics has been a subject of interest in China for many years. Primary overviews of computer graphics activities in China were presented in [9] (on research and industry) and [8] (on education). In addition, there was also a special journal issue on computer graphics in China [10]. However, computer graphics activities in Hong Kong [7] and Macao were not included in these materials. Furthermore some new achievements were achieved in the past years. For example, in the State Key Lab of CAD&CG, Zhejiang University, a four-sided CAVE was installed in 1999. In addition, nowadays virtual reality (VR) is a hot research topic. In China researchers have attained many achievements in various VR fields. We will emphasize this aspect as we introduce computer graphics activities in China.This article gives an overview of the research and development of computer graphics in China, including the mainland of China, Hong Kong and Macao. The article is organized as follows. The next section introduces computer graphics research in some major universities and institutes in China. The section following that presents some industrial activities in computer graphics in China. The next section presents some other activities related to computer graphics. The final section gives closing comments.

Nonnegative Realization of Autonomous Systems in the Behavioral Approach
Authors: Maria Elena Valcher
Venue: SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization (2001)

Nonnegative linear systems, which have traditionally been investigated within the state-space framework, have been recently introduced and analyzed by means of the behavioral approach. In a couple of recent papers, [J. W. Nieuwenhuis, Linear Algebra Appl., 281 (1998), pp. 43--58, M. E. Valcher, Linear Algebra Appl., 319 (2000), pp. 147--162], several general definitions and results about nonnegative behaviors, as well as a complete analysis of nonnegativity property for autonomous behaviors, have been presented. In this contribution, by focusing our interest again on autonomous behaviors, we explore the nonnegative realization problem by deriving an extended set of necessary and sufficient (geometric) conditions for an autonomous behavior to be nonnegative realizable. In the scalar case, in particular, necessary and sufficient conditions for nonnegative realizability, which refer to the set of zeros of any polynomial involved in the kernel description of the behavior, are provided. Finally, a comparison between the nonnegative realizability property, here investigated, and K-realizability, addressed in [H. Maeda and S. Kodama, IEEE Trans. ircuits, Systems I Fund. Theory Appl., CAS-281 (1981), pp. 39--47] is carried on.
The Architecture of Intelligence
Authors: Derrick de Kerckhove
Venue:  (2001)

:"Throughout history we have lived in different spaces and architects, using different alphabets, have given them form: informal space, gestural and primitive, pre-Miletus (or pre-alphabet as de Kerckhove calls it); the space arterialized by the Greeks and Romans: the sacred and mystic space before Giotto; that perspective space of the Renaissance; the industrial and mechanical, analytical and non-perspective space after Cezanne. Each new space on arriving has required new principles and new alphabets that have been created through difficult, exhausting, rough but exciting processes. Today, the need for creating a new alphabet for the new information space is pressing. We can only begin to catch a glimpse of its characteristics. Like dolphins that take in oxygen to jump from the sea and follow ships and see the outlines of islands and coasts, a few pioneers are working in an attempt to define the possibilities and principles of precisely this new space. This book will help you join in this search."--BOOK JACKET.

Compact recognizers of episode sequences
Authors: Alberto Apostolico, Mikhail J. Atallah
Venue: Information and Computation (2002)

Given two strings X=a1...an and P=b1...bm over an alphabet , the problem of testing whether P occurs as a subsequence of X is trivially solved in linear time. It is also known that a simple O (n log ||) time preprocessing of X makes it easy to decide subsequently, for any P and in at most |P| log || character comparisons, whether P is a subsequence of X. These problems become more complicated if one asks instead whether P occurs as a subsequence of some substring Y of X of bounded length. This paper presents an automaton built on the textstring X and capable of identifying all distinct minimal substrings Y of X having P as a subsequence. By a substring Y being minimal with respect to P, it is meant that P is not a subsequence of any proper substring of Y. For every minimal substring Y, the automaton recognizes the occurrence of P having the lexicographically smallest sequence of symbol positions in Y. It is not difficult to realize such an automaton in time and space O (n2) for a text of n characters. One result of this paper consists of bringing those bounds down to linear or O (n log n), respectively, depending on whether the alphabet is bounded or of arbitrary size, thereby matching the corresponding complexities of automata constructions for offline exact string searching. Having built the automaton, the search for all lexicographically earliest occurrences of P in X is carried out in time O (i=1mroccii) or O (n+i=1mroccii log n), depending on whether the alphabet is fixed or arbitrary, where rocci is the number of distinct minimal substrings of X having b1...bi as a subsequence (note that each such substring may occur many times in X but is counted only once in the bound). All log factors appearing in the above bounds can be further reduced to log log by resorting to known integer-handling data structures.

Repairing syntax errors in LR-based parsers
Authors: Carl Cerecke
Venue: Proceedings of the twenty-fifth Australasian conference on Computer science - Volume 4 (2002)

When a compiler encounters a syntax error, it usually attempts to restart parsing to check the remainder of the input for any further errors. One common method of recovering from syntax errors is to repair the incorrect input string, allowing parsing to continue. This research presents a language independent method for repairing the input string to an LALR(1) parser. The method results in much faster repairs in general than an existing method, enabling some errors to be repaired that were previously too costly. Results are based on repairing syntax errors in Java programs from first year computer science students.
Technology mapping
Authors: Leon Stok, Vivek Tiwari
Venue: Logic Synthesis and Verification (2001)

Technology mapping transforms a technology independent logic network into gates implemented in a technology library. This chapter focuses on the three phases of technology mapping: decomposition, pattern matching and covering. Traditionally, a lot of work has been focused on tree mapping algorithms, but since most practical circuits are DAGs, DAG mapping algorithms are gaining importance. Different objective functions, namely delay, area, power and reliability motivate the use of different algorithms. Future challenges are outlined.
