Using shape distributions to compare solid models
Authors: Cheuk Yiu Ip, Daniel Lapadat, Leonard Sieger, William C. Regli
Venue: Proceedings of the seventh ACM symposium on Solid modeling and applications (2002)

Our recent work has described how to use feature and topology in-formation to compare 3-D solid models. In this work we describe a new method to compare solid models based on shape distributions. Shape distribution functions are common in the computer graphics and computer vision communities. The typical use of shape dis-tributions is to compare 2-D objects, such as those obtained from imaging devices (cameras and other computer vision equipment). Recent work has applied shape distribution metrics for compari-son of approximate models found in the graphics community, such as polygonal meshes, faceted representation, and Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) models. This paper examines how to adapt these techniques to comparison of 3-D solid models, such as those produced by commercial CAD systems. We provide a brief review of shape matching with distribution functions and present an approach to matching solid models. First, we show how to ex-tend basic distribution-based techniques to handle CAD data that has been exported to VRML format. These extensions address specific geometries that occur in mechanical CAD data. Second, we describe how to use shape distributions to directly interrogate solid models. Lastly, we show how these techniques can be put together to provide a "query by example" interface to a large, het-erogeneous, CAD database: The National Design Repository. One significant contribution of our work is the systematic technique for performing consistent, engineering content-based comparisons of CAD models produced by different CAD systems.

On coupled wave equation of Kirchhoff type with nonlinear boundary damping and memory term

STAR: a transparent spanning tree bridge protocol with alternate routing
Authors: King-Shan Lui, Whay Chiou Lee, Klara Nahrstedt
Venue: ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review (2002)

With increasing demand for multimedia applications, local area network (LAN) technologies are rapidly being upgraded to provide support for quality of service (QoS). In a network that consists of an interconnection of multiple LANs via bridges, the QoS of a flow depends on the length of an end-to-end forwarding path. In the IEEE 802.1D standard for bridges, a spanning tree is built among the bridges for loop-free frame forwarding. Albeit simple, this approach does not support all-pair shortest paths. In this paper, we present a novel bridge protocol, the Spanning Tree Alternate Routing (STAR) Bridge Protocol, that attempts to find and forward frames over alternate paths that are provably shorter than their corresponding tree paths. Being backward compatible to IEEE 802.1D, our bridge protocol allows cost-effective performance enhancement of an existing extended LAN by incrementally replacing a few bridges in the extended LAN by the new STAR bridges. We develop a strategy to ascertain bridge locations for maximum performance gain. Our study shows that we can significantly improve the end-to-end performance when deploying our bridge protocol.
Theory of Semi-Feasible Algorithms
Authors: Lane A. Hemaspaandra, Leen Torenvliet
Venue:  (2002)

:This book presents a consolidated survey of the vibrant field of research known as the theory of semi-feasible algorithms. This research stream perfectly showcases the richness of, and contrasts between, the central notions of complexity: running time, nonuniform complexity, lowness, and NP-hardness. Research into semi-feasible computation has already developed a rich set of tools, yet is young enough to have an abundance of fresh, open issues. Being essentially self-contained, the book requires neither great mathematical maturity nor an extensive background in computational complexity theory or in computer science in general. Newcomers are introduced to the field systematically and guided to the frontiers of current research. Researchers already active in the field will appreciate the book as a valuable source of reference.
Special Edition Using XSLT
Authors: Michael Floyd, David Gulbransen, Mark Wutka, Joe Hinder, Alaric B. Snell
Venue:  (2001)

:One of the major premises of XML is that it allows the separation of data, program logic, and presentation. A cornerstone of this is the eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL). Special Edition Using XSLT shows you how to take advantage of XSL to create device-independent applications or map data between differing schemas. It introduces key XSL concepts, then shows how to apply them in real-world situations. Each chapter starts by defining the main concept, introduces supporting theory, and then follows with examples of typical real-world situations. Part 1 lays the foundations of XSL and XSLT development, including coverage of XPath. Part 2 builds on this foundation, focusing on XSLT and providing several collections of transformations that are useful in typical situations. Part 3 focuses on development techniques, including methods for manipulating stylesheets programmatically, dynamic stylesheet generation, debugging strategies and server-side development using either Microsoft or Java technologies. Finally, the appendices provide language references for XSLT, XSL-FO, and XPath.

Imagining and experiencing in design, the role of performances
Authors: Giulio Iacucci, Carlo Iacucci, Kari Kuutti
Venue: Proceedings of the second Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction (2002)

Several works have been published describing group performances to experience ideas during early design phases. Beyond practical accounts, performances have been poorly considered in the design literature. By analysing some of these works along with ours, we have inferred three roles of performance in the design of interactive systems: exploring, communicating, and testing. Starting from this categorization we discuss concepts that might be useful for a deeper understanding of the role of performances: the creation of a fictional space, the role of imagination, and interactional creativity.
