Note added 4/21/20 by Marc Levoy: Except for links to People > Faculty, this web site has become outdated. Most links to Research projects, Courses in graphics, Technical publications, Slides from talks, Software packages, Data archives, and Cool Demos still function and might be useful. However, links to people other than faculty, infrastructure, and opportunities for students are likely broken or irrelevant... Visual computing tasks such as computational imaging, image/video understanding, and real-time 3D graphics are key responsibilities of modern computer systems ranging from sensor-rich smart phones, autonomous robots, and large datacenters. These workloads demand exceptional system efficiency and this course examines the key ideas, techniques, and challenges associated with the design of parallel, heterogeneous systems that accelerate visual computing applications. This course is intended for systems students interested in architecting efficient graphics, image processing, and..
