IceCube--a neutrino telescope that encompasses a cubic kilometer of Antarctic ice at the South Pole, collecting and processing data from 5,160 optical sensors buried a mile deep in the icecap--presents considerable challenges, from overcoming power and bandwidth limitations to simulating the complexities of Antarctic ice, which continue to stretch computing technology.

The CDF II detector uses dedicated hardware to identify charged tracks that are used in an important class of level 1 trigger decisions. Until now, this hardware identified track segments based on patterns of hits on only the axial sense wires in the tracking chamber and determined the transverse momentum of track candidates from patterns of track segments. This identification is efficient but produces...
This paper presents a novel calibration method for data-gloves with many degrees of freedom. The goal of our method is to establish a mapping from the sensor values of the glove to the joint angles of an articulated hand that is of 'high visual' fidelity. This is in contrast to previous methods that aim at determining the absolute values of the real joint angles with high accuracy. The advantage of...
