A survey of architecture design rationale

Journal of Systems and Software, 2006
Many claims have been made about the consequences of not documenting design rationale. The general perception is that designers and architects usually do not fully understand the critical role of systematic use and capture of design rationale. However, there is to date little empirical evidence available on what design rationale mean to practitioners ...

A survey of architectures for volume rendering

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 1990
Five hardware architectures for volume rendering, which requires efficiently handling a huge amount of volumetric data, are surveyed, categorized, and compared. They are Cube, Insight, PARCUM, Voxel Processor, and 3DP. General-purpose graphics systems that exploit their surface-based geometry engine to reduce the computational burden of the rendering ...

Architectures for wavelet transforms: A survey

Journal of VLSI signal processing systems for signal, image and video technology, 1996
Wavelet transforms have proven to be useful tools for several applications, including signal analysis, signal compression and numerical analysis. This paper surveys the VLSI architectures that have been proposed for computing the Discrete and Continuous Wavelet Transforms for 1-D and 2-D signals. The architectures are based upon on-line versions of the

Robot Control Architectures: A Survey

2013
This paper surveys and analyzes the relevant literature on robot control architectures. The design of an efficient collaborative multi-robot framework that ensures the autonomy and the individual requirements of the involved robots is a very challenging task. This requires designing an efficient platform for inter-robot communication.

A survey of reconfigurable computing architectures

1998
In this paper, a survey of reconfigurable computing is presented. There have been other surveys in this field, but none as exhaustive as this one tries to be. The main goal of this paper is to consider a large variety of different approaches to the field of reconfigurable computing, and to make a thorough classification. This classification is aimed at

A Survey of Architectures for Adaptive Hypermedia

2004
This chapter surveys and summarizes architectures and models for Adaptive Hypermedia (AH), discussing the main issues that arise and the commonly used techniques for adaption. An overview of some existing architectures and systems is given. We then focus in greater detail on one particular architecture, the XML Adaptive Hypermedia Model.

Stochastic hardware architectures: A survey

2012 International Conference on Energy Aware Computing, 2012
Many emerging computer applications may be classified into recognition, mining, and synthesis (RMS) applications, or into stream-based media applications. One interesting and useful property of such applications is that they are tolerant to errors. In fact, these applications allow discrepancies in intermediate computations, but nevertheless are able ...

FPGA architectural research: a survey

IEEE Design & Test of Computers, 1996
A recent article by S. Brown and J. Rose (see ibid., vol.13, no.2, p.42-57, 1996) summarized the classes of field programmable devices currently available and described many of the most important commercial devices. We describe current research studies, evaluating the enhancements to FPGA architecture each recommends and how these architectures affect ...

The architectural 3D survey vs archaeological 3D survey

2013 Digital Heritage International Congress (DigitalHeritage), 2013
Summary form only given. In the last few years, the field of building architecture and archaeology survey's trend has been to implement a methodology which essentially converges to several procedures used indiscriminately in both environments. Such a methodology consists of: a first phase of data acquisition, carried out through well-established 3D ...
