متن کاملCS6204: Cumulus, Nimbus, Cumulonimbus – Choosing Between Clouds
Cloud computing is a multi-billion business, with more than 100 cloud service providers [1] vying for supremacy. Businesses are overwhelmed with choices and tradeoffs. In this paper we offer a qualitative and quantitative assessment of leading cloud service providers (CSPs) to guide small and medium businesses (SMBs) in their choice of CSP. Our qualitative study of usability, reliability, and c...
متن کاملAdaptive sampling of cumulus clouds with UAVs
This paper presents an approach to guide a fleet of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to actively gather data in low-altitude cumulus clouds with the aim of mapping atmospheric variables. Building on-line maps based on very sparse local measurements is the first challenge to overcome, for which an approach based on Gaussian Processes is proposed. A particular attention is given to the on-line hyperparam...
متن کاملVisualizing Cumulus Clouds in Virtual Reality
Feature tracking in large data sets is traditionally an off-line, batch processing operation while virtual reality typically focuses on highly interactive tasks and applications. This paper presents an approach that uses a combination of off-line preprocessing and interactive visualization in VR to simplify and speed up the identification of interesting features for further study. We couch the ...
متن کاملHigh-Performance Rendering of Realistic Cumulus Clouds Using Pre-computed Lighting
We present a new method for rendering realistic cumulus clouds in real time. The clouds in our approach consist of randomly rotated and scaled copies of a single reference particle. During the pre-processing, we pre-compute optical depth, single and multiple scattering inside the reference particle for every camera position, orientation and light direction, and store the information in the look...
