Connected component identification and cluster update on GPU
Cluster identification tasks occur in a multitude of contexts in physics and
engineering such as, for instance, cluster algorithms for simulating spin
models, percolation simulations, segmentation problems in image processing, or
network analysis. While it has been shown that graphics processing units (GPUs)
can result in speedups of two to three orders of magnitude as compared to
serial codes on CPUs for the case of local and thus naturally parallelized
problems such as single-spin flip update simulations of spin models, the
situation is considerably more complicated for the non-local problem of cluster
or connected component identification. I discuss the suitability of different
approaches of parallelization of cluster labeling and cluster update algorithms
for calculations on GPU and compare to the performance of serial
implementations.Comment: 15 pages, 14 figures, one table, submitted to PR

Ontology based approach for video transmission over the network
With the increase in the bandwidth & the transmission speed over the
internet, transmission of multimedia objects like video, audio, images has
become an easier work. In this paper we provide an approach that can be useful
for transmission of video objects over the internet without much fuzz. The
approach provides a ontology based framework that is used to establish an
automatic deployment of video transmission system. Further the video is
compressed using the structural flow mechanism that uses the wavelet principle
for compression of video frames. Finally the video transmission algorithm known
as RRDBFSF algorithm is provided that makes use of the concept of restrictive
flooding to avoid redundancy thereby increasing the efficiency.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, 4 table
