Real time rendering of three-dimensional scenes in high photorealistic detail is a hard task, such as in the Ray Tracing rendering algorithm. However, parallel implementations of Ray Tracing have been enabling real time performance, as the algorithm is embarrassingly parallel. Thus, a custom parallel design in hardware is likely to achieve an acceptable performance. In this paper, we propose a hardware parallel architecture capable of dealing with the main desirable features of Ray Tracing, such as shadows and reflection effects, imposing low area cost and acceptable rendering performance.

Collaboration networks are social networks in which relationships represent some kind of professional collaboration. The study of collaboration networks can help identify members that are important or influential within a given community. This work is divided into two parts. The first part is a study of the topological properties of two collaboration networks: the global collaboration network and the Brazilian collaboration network of authors of scientific papers within the area of computerscience. The second part presents a ranking metric for vertices based on the intensities of their relationships. Using the proposed metric and other more classical metrics, we rank the researchers in Brazil in computerscience. The proposed metric was compared with subjective evaluation of researchers made by CNPq. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed metric in identifying influential researchers when compared to another metrics in the literature.

Weightless Artificial Neural Networks have proved to be a promising paradigm for classification tasks. This work introduces the WANN-Tagger, which makes use of weightless artificial neural networks for labelling Portuguese sentences, tagging each of its terms with its respective part-of-speech. A first experimental evaluation using the CETENFolha corpus indicates the usefulness of this paradigm and shows that it outperforms traditional feedforward neural networks in both accuracy and training time, and also that it is competitive in accuracy with the Hidden Markov Model in some cases. Additionally, WANN-Tagger shows itself capable of incrementally learning new tagged sentences during runtime.
Computational energy consumption of the processing elements (PEs) of a NoC can be significantly reduced by scaling down their voltage levels. This creates clusters of adjacent PEs operating at the same voltage level, ...
