To simulate realistic crowds of virtual humans in real time, three main requirements need satisfaction. First of all, quantity, i.e., the ability to simulate thousands of characters. Secondly, quality, because each virtual human composing a crowd needs to ...
The relevance of nanotechnology and more specifically nanoscience to cementitious materials is discussed. Some examples are given of the influence of nanosciences on our understanding of cementitious materials and its impact on the applications of these ma ...

Distributed systems are difficult to design and develop. The difficulties arise both in basic safety correctness properties, and in achieving high performance. As a result of this complexity, the implementation of a distributed system often contains the ba ...
Atomic broadcast is a useful abstraction for implementing fault-tolerant distributed applications such as state machine replication. Although a number of algorithms solving atomic broadcast have been published, the problem of bounding the memory used by th ...
Despite the abundance of daylighting design software, there are few tools which focus on annually comprehensive and climate-realistic data, and fewer which give performance as a function of time. Lightsolve, a tool under development, emphasizes the importa ...
A one-pot procedure involving radical conjugate addition of B-alkylcatecholboranes to enones followed by intramolecular aldol reaction is reported. Application to the stereoselective synthesis of monocyclic and bicyclic products with up to four contiguous ...
The combination of low cost clusters and multicore processors lowers the barrier for accessing massive amounts of computing power. As computational sciences advance, the use of in silico simulations to complement in vivo experiments promises parallel progr ...
