Merging Images from Parallel Depth Cameras
PublicationIn this paper a problem of simultaneous information acquisition from multiple depth cameras is investigated, aiming at obtaining single overall picture containing information from all cameras. The experiments are carried out on Microsoft Kinect devices. A methodology for merging images from multiple positioned in a line cameras is proposed. The method is based on the concept of simulating a view of an imaginary camera covering...

Parallel computations in the volunteer based Comcute system
PublicationThe paper presents Comcute which is a novel multi-level implemen- tation of the volunteer based computing paradigm. Comcute was designed to let users donate the computing power of their PCs in a simplified manner, requiring only pointing their web browser at a specific web address and clicking a mouse. The server side appoints several servers to be in charge of execution of particular tasks. Thanks to that the system can survive...

Parallel frequency tracking with built-in performance evaluation
PublicationThe problem of estimation of instantaneous frequency of a nonstationary complex sinusoid (cisoid) buried in wideband noise is considered. The proposed approach employs a bank of adaptive notch filters, extended with a nontrivial performance assessment mechanism which automatically chooses the best performing filter in the bank. Additionally, a computationally attractive method of implementing the bank is proposed. The new structure...

NVRAM as Main Storage of Parallel File System
PublicationModern cluster environments' main trouble used to be lack of computational power provided by CPUs and GPUs, but recently they suffer more and more from insufficient performance of input and output operations. Apart from better network infrastructure and more sophisticated processing algorithms, a lot of solutions base on emerging memory technologies. This paper presents evaluation of using non-volatile random-access memory as a...

Bounds on the cover time of parallel rotor walks
PublicationThe rotor-router mechanism was introduced as a deterministic alternative to the random walk in undirected graphs. In this model, a set of k identical walkers is deployed in parallel, starting from a chosen subset of nodes, and moving around the graph in synchronous steps. During the process, each node successively propagates walkers visiting it along its outgoing arcs in round-robin fashion, according to a fixed ordering. We consider...

Testing for conformance of parallel programming pattern languages
PublicationThis paper reports on the project being run by TUG and IMAG, aimed at reducing the volume of tests required to exercise parallel programming language compilers and libraries. The idea is to use the ISO STEP standard scheme for conformance testing of software products. A detailed example illustrating the ongoing work is presented.

Scattering by parallel cylindrical posts with conducting strips.
PublicationRozwinięto teorię rozpraszania fali elektromagnetycznej w obszarach otwartych i zamkniętych na metalizowanych obiektach cylindrycznych przy użyciu zmodyfikowanej procedury iteracyjnej i metody dopasowania rodzajów. W wyniku analizy uzyskano pole rozproszone w przypadku struktur otwartych oraz odpowiedzi częstotliwościowe współczynników odbicia i transmisji w prostokątnych złączach falowodowych. Obrót i przemieszczenie opisywane...

Parallel tabu search for graph coloring problem
PublicationTabu search is a simple, yet powerful meta-heuristic based on local search that has been often used to solve combinatorial optimization problems like the graph coloring problem. This paper presents current taxonomy of patallel tabu search algorithms and compares three parallelization techniques applied to Tabucol, a sequential TS algorithm for graph coloring. The experimental results are based on graphs available from the DIMACS...

A distributed system for conducting chess games in parallel
PublicationThis paper proposes a distributed and scalable cloud based system designed to play chess games in parallel. Games can be played between chess engines alone or between clusters created by combined chess engines. The system has a built-in mechanism that compares engines, based on Elo ranking which finally presents the strength of each tested approach. If an approach needs more computational power, the design of the system allows...

Parallel Computations of Text Similarities for Categorization Task
PublicationIn this chapter we describe the approach to parallel implementation of similarities in high dimensional spaces. The similarities computation have been used for textual data categorization. A test datasets we create from Wikipedia articles that with their hyper references formed a graph used in our experiments. The similarities based on Euclidean distance and Cosine measure have been used to process the data using k-means algorithm....

Parallel implementation of a Sailing Assistance Application in a Cloud Environment
PublicationSailboat weather routing is a highly complex problem in terms of both the computational time and memory. The reason for this is a large search resulting in a multitude of possible routes and a variety of user preferences. Analysing all possible routes is only feasible for small sailing regions, low-resolution maps, or sailboat movements on a grid. Therefore, various heuristic approaches are often applied, which can find solutions...

Scheduling with Complete Multipartite Incompatibility Graph on Parallel Machines
PublicationIn this paper we consider a problem of job scheduling on parallel machines with a presence of incompatibilities between jobs. The incompatibility relation can be modeled as a complete multipartite graph in which each edge denotes a pair of jobs that cannot be scheduled on the same machine. Our research stems from the works of Bodlaender, Jansen, and Woeginger (1994) and Bodlaender and Jansen (1993). In particular, we pursue the...

Performance evaluation of parallel background subtraction on GPU platforms
PublicationImplementation of the background subtraction algorithm on parallel GPUs is presented. The algorithm processes video streams and extracts foreground pixels. The work focuses on optimizing parallel algorithm implementation by taking into account specific features of the GPU architecture, such as memory access, data transfers and work group organization. The algorithm is implemented in both OpenCL and CUDA. Various optimizations of...

Comparison of EHD devices with parallel and in series spiked electrodes
PublicationIn this paper two electrohydrodynamic (EHD) devices for gas pumping and cleaning are presented. In both cases to induce an airflow in these EHD devices corona discharge was used. The discharge was generated between the spiked electrodes set parallel (the first case) or in series (the second case) and the plate electrodes. An asymmetric electric field and generated discharge result in unidirectional gas flow through the EHD device....
