Equatives, Measure Phrases and NPIs
Standard semantic accounts of the equative ascribe it an ‘at least’ meaning, deriving an ‘exactly’ reading when necessary via scalar implicature. I argue for a particular formulation of this scalar implicature account which considers that (i) equatives license NPIs in their internal arguments, and (ii) equatives whose internal arguments are measure phrases (MPs) are, in contrast to clausal equa...
متن کاملMeasure Phrase Equatives and Modified Numerals
In English, equatives can be formed with a numeral or measure phrase (MP) standard (e.g. John can dive as deep as 500m; Rett, 2010). These ‘measure phrase equatives’ (MPEs) differ semantically from their clausal counterparts (e.g. John can dive as deep as Sue can) in two important ways. First, while clausal standards set lower bounds, resulting in an ‘at least’ interpretation of the equative, M...
متن کاملConcurrent Non-deferred Reference Counting on the Microgrid: First Experiences
We present a first evaluation of our novel approach for nondeferred reference counting on the Microgrid many-core architecture. Non-deferred reference counting is a fundamental building block of implicit heap management of functional array languages in general and Single Assignment C in particular. Existing lock-free approaches for multicore and SMP settings do not scale well for large numbers ...
متن کاملDeferred Splatting
In recent years it has been shown that, above a certain complexity, points become the most efficient rendering primitives. Although the programmability of the lastest graphics hardware allows efficient implementation of high quality surface splatting algorithms, their performance remains below those obtained with simpler point based rendering algorithms when they are used for scenes of high com...
متن کاملDeferred Rendering
In this paper an overview of the deferred rendering technique and its applications is discussed. First, a short review of forward rendering and its drawbacks is given. Then the paper dives into a technical overview of the deferred rendering technique and its implementation together with the pros and cons involved. A short review of its applications in different areas like games and scientific v...
