— This work considers the problem of transmitting multiple compressible sources over a network with minimum cost. The problem is complicated by the fact that the description of t...
The prediction step is a very important part of hybrid video codecs for effectively compressing video sequences. While existing video codecs predict either in temporal or in spati...
In this paper, we study the effects of compression on bitmap indexes. The main operations on the bitmaps during query processing are bitwise logical operations such as AND, OR, N...
This paper considers a large-scale wireless sensor network where sensor readings are occasionally collected by a mobile sink, and sensor nodes are responsible for temporarily stori...
With the advancement of computer graphics in the recent years, an increasing number of pictures, video and 3D content is generated by synthesis processing rather than acquired wit...
