This paper compares various techniques for compressing floating point distance fields. Both lossless and lossy techniques are compared against a new lossless technique. The new Ve...
Lossless data compression techniques can potentially free up more than 50% of the memory resources. However, previously proposed schemes suffer from high access costs. The propose...
The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s Blue Gene/L which can acc...
A new progressive transmission scheme using spline biorthogorial wavelet bases is proposed in this paper: First, several wavelet bases are compared with the spline biorthogonul nm...
The size of geometric data sets in scientific and industrial applications is constantly increasing. Storing surface or volume meshes in standard uncompressed formats results in la...
