The availability of multicore CPUs and programmable GPUs have risen the provision of processing power for applications. In case of games, this means increased scene realism and more sophisticated artificial intelligence and physics simulations, for example. However, using more power raises energy consumption and system temperature. Therefore, energy consumption and thermal management are resear...

The interactive approach of character animation requires sophisticated motion synthesis algorithms to generate poses and motions for unpredictable events. Traditional animation techniques used alone cannot produce the needed degree of realism or the degree of controllability required for virtual characters. Motion-capture techniques and the physical simulation of characters, when combined, offe...

P rofessional education in dentistry exists to educate good dentists, dentists equipped and committed to helping society gain the benefits of oral health. In achieving this intention, dental educators acknowledge that student dentists must acquire the complex knowledge base and the sophisticated perceptual-motor skills of dentistry. The graduation of knowledgeable and skilled clinicians in dent...

Abstract One desideratum for a theory of fundamentality is to give us the conceptual tools articulate fruitful metaphysical distinctions between assortment ‘realist’ and ‘anti-realist’ positions in given domain such as meta-ethics. The ability gives way assess rival theories fundamentality, Fine’s grounding Sider’s semantic theory. Indeed, Sider has argued that have an edge with respect this ta...

Large-scale competitive P2P systems are threatened by the noncooperation problem, where peers do not forward queries to potential competitors. While non-cooperation is not a problem in current P2P free file-sharing systems, it is likely to be a problem in such P2P systems as pay-per-transaction file-sharing systems, P2P auctions, and P2P service discovery systems, where peers are in competition...
