Development of a Component-based GIS using GRASS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to the driving forces of the Internet and network communication technology, the paradigm of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is shifting [16, 19]. Moreover, with the advances in computer technology and GIS science, distributed GIS become practical and widely acceptable. Traditional GIS plays an extremely valuable role in GIS applications by providing a wide variety of tools to handle geo-referenced data. However traditional GIS cannot be applied directly in distributed and heterogeneous computing environments due to their closed and centralized architectures.

Tuning Principal Component Analysis for GRASS GIS on Multi-core and GPU Architectures
This paper presents optimizations to Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in GRASS GIS. The current implementation of PCA in GRASS is based on eigenvalue decomposition, which does not have high memory requirements but it can suffer from low runtime performance. In modern computers, significant performance improvements can be achieved by appropriately taking advantage of the memory configuration (...
