  abstract     = {{We present a parallel rendering system for heterogeneous PC clusters to visualize massive models. One single, powerful visualization node is supported by a group of backend nodes with weak graphics performance. While the visualization node renders the visible objects, the backend nodes asynchronously perform visibility tests and supply the front end with visible scene objects. The visualization node stores only currently visible objects in its memory, while the scene is distributed among the backend nodes’ memory without redundancy. To efficiently compute the occlusion tests in spite of that each backend node stores only a fraction of the original geometry, we complete the scene by adding highly simplified versions of the objects stored on other nodes. We test our system with 15 backend nodes. It is able to render a ≈ 350,M polygons (≈ 8.5,GiB) large aircraft model with 20, to 30,fps and thus allows a walk-through in real-time.

  abstract     = {{Gathering n mobile robots in one single point in the Euclidean plane is a widely studied problem from the area of robot formation problems. Classically, the robots are assumed to have no physical extent, and they are able to share a position with other robots. We drop these assumptions and investigate a similar problem for robots with (a spherical) extent: the goal is to gather the robots as close together as possible. More exactly, we want the robots to form a sphere with minimum radius around a predefined point. We propose an algorithm for this problem which synchronously moves the robots towards the center of the sphere unless they block each other. In this case, if possible, the robots spin around the center of the sphere. We analyze this algorithm experimentally in the plane. If R is the distance of the farthest robot to the center of the sphere, the simulations indicate a runtime which is linear in n and R. Additionally, we prove a theoretic upper bound for the runtime of O(nR) for a discrete version of the problem. Simulations also suggest a runtime of O(n + R) for the discrete version.}},

  abstract     = {{Given a set of n mobile robots in the d-dimensional Euclidean space, the goal is to let them converge to a single not predefined point. The challenge is that the robots are limited in their capabilities. Robots can, upon activation, compute the positions of all other robots using an individual affine coordinate system. The robots are indistinguishable, oblivious and may have different affine coordinate systems. A very general discrete time model assumes that robots are activated in arbitrary order. Further, the computation of a new target point may happen much earlier than the movement, so that the movement is based on outdated information about other robot's positions. Time is measured as the number of rounds, where a round ends as soon as each robot has moved at least once. In [Cohen, Peleg: Convergence properties of gravitational algorithms in asynchronous robot systems], the Center of Gravity is considered as target function, convergence was proven, and the number of rounds needed for halving the diameter of the convex hull of the robot's positions was shown to be O(n^2) and Omega(n). We present an easy-to-check property of target functions that guarantee convergence and yields upper time bounds. This property intuitively says that when a robot computes a new target point, this point is significantly within the current axes aligned minimal box containing all robots. This property holds, e.g., for the above-mentioned target function, and improves the above O(n^2) to an asymptotically optimal O(n) upper bound. Our technique also yields a constant time bound for a target function that requires all robots having identical coordinate axes.

  abstract     = {{We introduce the Read-Write-Coding-System (RWC)  a very flexible class of linear block codes that generate efficient and flexible erasure codes for storage networks. In particular, given a message x of k symbols and a codeword y of n symbols, an RW code defines additional parameters k \leq r,w \leq n that offer enhanced possibilities to adjust the fault-tolerance capability of the code. More precisely, an RWC provides linear $\left(n,k,d\right)$-codes that have (a) minimum distance d=n-r+1 for any two codewords, and (b) for each codeword there exists a codeword for each other message with distance of at most w. Furthermore, depending on the values r,w and the code alphabet, different block codes such as parity codes (e.g. RAID 4/5) or Reed-Solomon (RS) codes (if r=k and thus, w=n) can be generated. In storage networks in which I/O accesses are very costly and redundancy is crucial, this flexibility has considerable advantages as r and w can optimally be adapted to read or write intensive applications; only w symbols must be updated if the message x changes completely, what is different from other codes which always need to rewrite y completely as x changes. In this paper, we first state a tight lower bound and basic conditions for all RW codes. Furthermore, we introduce special RW codes in which all mentioned parameters are adjustable even online, that is, those RW codes are adaptive to changing demands. At last, we point out some useful properties regarding safety and security of the stored data.}},
