This book is the first technical overview of autonomous vehicles written for a general computing and engineering audience. The authors share their practical experiences of creating autonomous vehicle systems. These systems are complex, consisting of three major subsystems: (1) algorithms for localization, perception, and planning and control; (2) client systems, such as the robotics operating system and hardware platform; and (3) the cloud platform, which includes data storage, simulation, high-definition (HD) mapping, and deep learning model training. The algorithm subsystem extracts meaningful information from sensor raw data to understand its environment and make decisions about its actio...
Parallel processing offers a solution to the problem of providing the processing power necessary to help understand and master the complexity of natural phenomena and engineering structures. By taking several basic processing devices and connecting them together the potential exists of achieving a performance many times that of an individual device. However, building parallel application programs is today recognized as a highly complex activity requiring specialist skills and in-depth knowledge. PARLE is an international, European based conference which focuses on the parallel processing subdomain of informatics and information technology. It is intended to become THE European forum for interchange between experts in the parallel processing domain and to attract both industrial and academic participants with a technical programme designedto provide a balance between theory and practice. This volume contains the proceedings of PARLE '93. The PARLE conference came into existence in 1987 as an initiative from the ESPRIT I programme and the format was revised in 1991/92. PARLE '93 is the second conference with the new format and was held in Munich.
Multithreaded computer architecture has emerged as one of the most promising and exciting avenues for the exploitation of parallelism. This new field represents the confluence of several independent research directions which have united over a common set of issues and techniques. Multithreading draws on recent advances in dataflow, RISC, compiling for fine-grained parallel execution, and dynamic resource management. It offers the hope of dramatic performance increases through parallel execution for a broad spectrum of significant applications based on extensions to `traditional' approaches. Multithreaded Computer Architecture is divided into four parts, reflecting four major perspectives on ...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post-workshop proceedings of seven international events, held in Las Palma de Gran Canaria, Spain, in August 2008 within the scope of Euro-Par 2008, the 14th International Conference on Parallel Computing. The 43 papers presented together with 7 keynote lectures were carefully reviewed and selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from numerous presentations at the following workshops: the 3rd Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cluster and Grid Computing (VHPC 2008), the UNICORE Summit 2008, the International Workshop on Highly Parallel Processing on a Chip (HPPC 2008), the Workshop on Secure, Trusted, Manageable and Controllable Grid Services (SGS 2008), the Workshop on Productivity and Performance (PROPER 2008), the Workshop on Real-Time Online Interactive Applications on the Grid (ROIA 2008), and the Workshop on Abstractions for Distributed Systems (DPA 2008).
Euro-ParConferenceSeries The European Conference on Parallel Computing (Euro-Par) is an international conference series dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel and distributed computing. The major themes fall into the categories of hardware, software, algorithms, and applications. This year, new and interesting topicswereintroduced,likePeer-to-PeerComputing,DistributedMultimedia- stems, and Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing. For the ?rst time, we organized a Demo Session showing many challenging applications. The general objective of Euro-Par is to provide a forum promoting the de- lopment of parallel and distributed computing both as an industrial technique and a...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Distributed Computing, IWDC 2004, held in Kolkata, India in December 2004. The 27 revised full papers and 27 revised short papers presented together with 3 invited contributions and abstracts of 11 reviewed workshop papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on distributed algorithms, high-performance computing, distributed systems, wireless networks, information security, network protocols, reliability and testing, network topology and routing, mobile computing, ad-hoc networks, and sensor networks.
