Supervisor: Professor Stephen Mann

With the usage of additional schemes with respect to the local interpolation of vertices, it is possible to improve the quality (for example curvatures) of the resulting surfaces provided by the new blending scheme.

Master's Thesis Presentation - Systems and Networking - Understanding Partial Network Partitioning

Please note: This seminar will be given online.

Basil Alkhatib, David R. Cheriton of Computer Science, University of Waterloo

We present an extensive study focused on partial network partitioning.

Partial network partitions disrupt the communication between some but not all nodes in a cluster. First, we conduct a comprehensive study of system failures caused by this fault in 13 popular systems.
