Probabilistic Model for Virtual Garment Modeling
2014Designing 3D garments is difficult, especially when the user lacks professional knowledge of garment design. Inspired by the assemble modeling, we facilitate 3D garment modeling by combining parts extracted from a database containing a large collection of garment component.

Performance Modelling of Virtualized Servers
2010 12th International Conference on Computer Modelling and Simulation, 2010The increase on the demand of IT resources diverted enterprises to the use of costly physical servers. However, besides cooling and power cost, most of the times, physical servers are poorly utilized. Server virtualization is a way of better utilizing such resources and reducing power consumption.

Digital Scholarship in the Humanities, 2014
The three main objectives of the research project ‘No Problem Has Solution: A Digital Archive of the Book of Disquiet’ [1][1] are: (1) to represent the dynamics of the acts of writing and editing in the production of the LdoD [2][2]; (2) to explore the potential of the digital medium to simulate the history of this dynamics; and (3) to create a space ...

Performance Models for Virtualized Applications
2006This paper develops a series of performance models for predicting performance of applications on virtualized systems. It introduces the main ideas of performance modeling and presents a complete case study of an application running on Linux that is migrated to a virtualized environment consisting of Linux and Xen.

A conceptual virtual reality model
IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 1994Virtual reality involves the creation and experience of environments. Its central objective is to place the participant in an environment that is not normally or easily experienced. This objective is satisfied by establishing a relationship between the participant and the created environment.

Modeling realistic virtual hairstyles
Proceedings Ninth Pacific Conference on Computer Graphics and Applications. Pacific Graphics 2001, 2002The author presents an effective method for modeling realistic curly hairstyles, taking into account both artificial hairstyling processes and natural curliness. The result is a detailed geometric model of hairs that can be rendered and animated via existing methods.

A model of a virtual memory system
Acta Informatica, 1976We present a queueing network model of a virtual memory computer system including the effect of memory sharing among processes. Page fault and file request system overheads are explicitly taken into account. The fact that some memory pages have to be saved in the secondary memory at the moment of a page fault, is also taken into consideration.

A model of virtual 'learning to learn'
IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies, 2004. Proceedings., 2004Even though information and communications technology arises as a powerful tool for the improvement of education, at present, e-learning does not improve learning methods but merely repeats the problems of traditional education. This work proposes a new educational model that tries to tackle these problems. Through the use of a global ontology as basis

Virtual worlds as cultural models
ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology, 2010Thirteen gamelike virtual worlds illustrate issues that overlap social science and information science, because they embody rather clear theories of society and culture: World of Warcraft , Lord of the Rings Online , Dark Age of Camelot , Age of Conan

Models and visualizations in a virtual habitat
Proceedings of the 19th Spring Conference on Computer Graphics, 2003The Earth is still rather "flat". Therefore geographic data still tend to be two-dimensional and are stored in 2-dimensional information systems. But we do live in a three-dimensional world. In technical systems, the 3rd dimension has long been merely an attribute of 2-dimensional graphical data. This is subject to rapid change.
