      Recent hardware and software advances have demonstrated that it is now practicable to run large visual computing tasks over heterogeneous hardware with output on multiple types of display devices. As the complexity of the ...

    • An Adaptive Sampling Approach to Incompressible Particle-Based Fluid 

      Hong, Woosuck; House, Donald H.; Keyser, John (The Eurographics Association, 2009)
      We describe an adaptive particle-based technique for simulating incompressible fluid that uses an octree structure to compute inter-particle interactions and to compute the pressure field. Our method extends the hybrid ...

    • Adi's Maze and the Research Arcade: A Long-term Study on the Impact of Gendered Representation on Player Preferences 

      Headleand, Christopher J.; Davies, Bethany; Williams, Benjamin (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Gender representation in games is a much discussed topic in the field of games design. A number of papers have explored the issues around sexist, and sexualised representation, and there even evidence that the assumed ...
