A microbenchmark suite for OpenMP 2.0
Authors: J. Mark Bull, Darragh O'Neill
Venue: ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News (2001)

In this paper we present a set of extensions to an existing microbenchmark suite for OpenMP. The new benchmarks are targeted at directives introduced in the OpenMP 2.0 standard, as well as at the handling of thread-private data structures. Results are presented for a Sun HPC 6500 system, with an early access release of an OpenMP 2.0 compliant compiler, and for an SGI Origin 3000 system.

General clipping on an oblique viewing frustrum
Authors: Richard F. Puk
Venue: Proceedings of the 4th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques (1977)

An algorithm is presented which clips on a non-rotated viewport positioned anywhere on the viewport plane relative to the viewing vector. This is a generalization of the traditional three-dimensional clipping algorithm in which the viewing vector intersects the viewport at its center. This traditional algorithm is shown to be a special case of the general algorithm. Also shown is that both orthogonal box clipping and perspective pyramid clipping can be accomplished using the same algorithm with only a slight increase in complexity. Finally, the ability to perform switch-controlled hither and yon plane clipping is described. It should be noted that with this general clipping algorithm no separate clipping operation is required for two-dimensional operations since they can be handled as an orthogonal projection from an arbitrary default Z-plane onto the viewport plane.
Perspectives in Spread Spectrum
Authors: Amer A. Hassan, J. E. Hershey, Gary J. Saulnier
Venue:  (1998)

:Perspectives in Spread Spectrum brings together studies and recent work on six exciting topics from the spread spectrum arts. The book gives a wide, collective view of trends, ideas, and techniques in the spread spectrum discipline, due to the authors' extensive work on spread spectrum techniques and applications from different vantage points. The inexorable march of electronics towards ever faster, ever smaller, and ever more powerful electronic and optical circuitry has wrought, and will continue to enable, profound changes in the spread spectrum arts, by allowing increasingly complex signaling waveforms and statistical tests to be implemented as the theory behind spread spectrum continues to evolve. Perspectives in Spread Spectrum serves as an excellent reference and source of ideas for further research, and may be used as a text for advanced courses on the topic.
Positioning Systems in Intelligent Transportation Systems, 1st edition
Authors: Chris R. Drane, Chris Rizos
Venue:  (1998)

:Positioning systems, which determine the location of cars, trucks, buses, trains, and airplanes, are critical in the use of intelligent transport systems (ITS) to improve the efficiency and safety of transport systems while making them less congested and less polluting. This book is the first integrated study of the role of positioning systems in ITS, the major types of positioning systems, the relationship between them, and methods for evaluating their performance. The content is also unique in that it covers the construction and use of maps for positioning, addresses the Global Positioning System (GPS), and discusses emerging positioning technologies such as Quiktrak and cellular mobile telephones. In addition, the book examines both the role of positioning in the architecture of ITS  and the suitability of various positioning systems for specific applications. Case studies further illustrate a method for analyzing ITS positioning requirements. This authoritative reference can help you save time and money by selecting and developing the most appropriate solutions. Specifically, it will help you:  Determine specifications of positioning systems for ITS  Identify the different types of positioning systems  Understand the high-level operation of positioning systems  Match positioning systems to ITS applications  Understand high-level mapping issues  Conceptualize the operation of positioning system components The book provides a wealth of information highly useful for transportation, electrical, and software engineers who are responsible for integrating positioning systems into broader ITS applications ordesigning new positioning systems for ITS. It is also an important source for positioning systems experts who need to gain a better understanding of ITS.
CCNP: Routing Study Guide, 2nd edition

Interactive skeleton-driven dynamic deformations
Authors: Steve Capell, Seth Green, Brian Curless, Tom Duchamp, Zoran Popović
Venue: ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG) (2002)

This paper presents a framework for the skeleton-driven animation of elastically deformable characters. A character is embedded in a coarse volumetric control lattice, which provides the structure needed to apply the finite element method. To incorporate skeletal controls, we introduce line constraints along the bones of simple skeletons. The bones are made to coincide with edges of the control lattice, which enables us to apply the constraints efficiently using algebraic methods. To accelerate computation, we associate regions of the volumetric mesh with particular bones and perform locally linearized simulations, which are blended at each time step. We define a hierarchical basis on the control lattice, so for detailed interactions the simulation can adapt the level of detail. We demonstrate the ability to animate complex models using simple skeletons and coarse volumetric meshes in a manner that simulates secondary motions at interactive rates.

Multiple instances and symbolic variables in executable sequence charts
Authors: Rami Marelly, David Harel, Hillel Kugler
Venue: Proceedings of the 17th ACM SIGPLAN conference on Object-oriented programming, systems, languages, and applications (2002)

We extend live sequence charts (LSCs), a highly expressive variant of sequence diagrams, and provide the extension with an executable semantics. The extension involves support for instances that can bind to multiple objects and symbolic variables that can bind to arbitrary values. The result is a powerful executable language for expressing behavioral requirements on the level of inter-object interaction. The extension is implemented in full in our play-engine tool, with which one can execute the requirements directly without the need to build or synthesize an intra-object system model. It seems that in addition to many advantages in testing and requirements engineering, for some kinds of systems this could lead to the requirements actually serving as the final implementation.
