High Performance Computing in Clouds
Moving HPC Applications to a Scalable and Cost-Effective Environment
Chapter
From the invention of the first general-purpose electronic computers in the 1940s to the early 1990s, the supercomputers used in high-performance computing (HPC) were highly specialized parallel machines with ...

Chapter
We are at the dawn of the future of autonomous driving. To understand what the future may be, we usually consult history, so let us start with that.
Chapter
In autonomous driving, the goal of perception is to sense the surrounding dynamic environment, to build reliable and detailed representation based on sensory data. In order for autonomous driving vehicles to b...

For autonomous vehicles, one of the most critical tasks is localization, i.e., the accurate and real-time determination of the unit’s position. In this chapter we first study different localization techniques,...
Chapter
In this chapter, we continue with our general discussion of the planning and control modules by expanding on the concepts of behavior decision, motion planning, and feedback control. Decision, planning, and contr...
