Block based motion compensation techniques make frequent use of Early Termination Algorithms (ETA) to reduce the computational cost of block matching process. ETAs have been well ...
Suppose we are given a set of objects that cover a region and a duration associated with each object. Viewing the objects as jobs, can we schedule their beginning times to maximiz...
