We present GraphDiaries, an interface for temporal navigation in dynamic networks with changing topology. Navigation in time is necessary for the exploration of single network states at different points in time and to explore higher level changes over periods of time. GraphDiaries enhances conventional node link diagrams with staged animated transitions between any time steps and small multiple...

ABSTRACT Spatial scheduling considers not only traditional scheduling constraints like resource capacity and due dates, but also dynamic spatial layout of the objects. Automation of spatial scheduling is particularly important when the spatial resources are critical bottleneck resources, as is the case in the shipbuilding industry. To develop a spatial scheduling expert system for shipbuilding,...

This paper presents an algorithm for the unconstrained two-dimensional cutting problem of rectangular pieces. It proposes the two-stage general block pattern that can be cut into general blocks in two stages, with another two or more stages being required to cut the blocks into pieces. Firstly vertical cuts divide the stock sheet into segments, and then horizontal cuts divide the segments into ...

As the functionality and complexity of the WWW continues to grow so does the need for WWW quality assurance and testing. Although there have been numerous approaches to automated Web testing, existing techniques analyze primarily textual information, and the final judgment on correctness of layout is via human observation. The motivation of this paper is to employ computer vision techniques to ...

With new defenses against traditional control-flow attacks like stack buffer overflows, attackers are increasingly using more advanced mechanisms to take control of execution. One common such attack is vtable hijacking, in which the attacker exploits bugs in C++ programs to overwrite pointers to the virtual method tables (vtables) of objects. We present a novel defense against this attack. The ...

Stockyard is a hob of information that reflects the production, stock and sales of precast concrete products. The stockyard layout plays an important role in storage and retrieval of the products. Stockyard layout planning offers a complex task as large number of products are involved with different handling and storage requirements, and large stock is inevitable due to seasonality of demand. T...

This technical report is devoted to the description of implementation details of the accelerated parallel one-sided block Jacobi SVD algorithm, whose analysis and design was described in [21]. We provide discuss a suitable data layout for a parallel implementation of the algorithm on a parallel computer with distributed memory. This discussion is complicated by the fact that different computati...

This paper presents a novel approach to illustrate dynamic procedures in tutoring materials by analyzing corresponding animations. We propose two strategies: (i) to enhance animations with secondary elements (e.g., textual annotations and arrows) and (ii) to generate visual summaries, i.e. illustrations where secondary elements provide indications of the direction and the extent of moving objec...
