| Heiti | Modelling rain in virtual environments |
| Lýsing | Different elements of weather are often used to add realism to outdoor scenes in virtual environments. This is still an active area of research and so far a general solution has not been developed. In this project a weather engine was created to produce different types of rain using the Panda3D game engine and animating it by using programmable shaders. The engine incorporates some key attributes of the real phenomenon into the virtual rain. |

| Heiti | Detecting similar-looking video content |
| Lýsing | The goal of this project was to measure the identification confidence of the Videntifier Forensic software, which automatically recognizes video material, and study how it handles database workloads of similar-looking material. The Videntifier was able to identify all videos in the database and even determine which series videos belonged to, that were not in the database, if other episodes of the same series were in the database. |

| Heiti | Flash Devices and Databases |
| Lýsing | Solid-state devices appear poised to comprehensively change data management performance trade-offs. In order to take full advantage of their performance, however, a clear understanding of their performance characteristics in required. The goal of this project is to understand flash device tradeoffs by selecting, installing and potentially adapting a variety of benchmarking experiments for flash devices. |
