Distributed and parallel computing environments are becoming cheap and commonplace. The availability of large numbers of CPU's makes it possible to process more data at highe...
This paper presents a novel research direction in the field of sensor data management. It concerns transactional support in heterogeneous large scale sensor systems. Besides well...
A temporally scalable video coding algorithm allows extraction of video of multiple frame rates from a single coded stream. This paper compares the rate-distortion performance of ...
An important problem in medical imaging is that of ef?cient volumetric image compression. In addition to compression ef?ciency, scalable representations which allow access to the ...
Multiple description video coding mitigates the effects of packet losses introduced by congestion and/or bit errors. In this paper, we propose a novel multiple description video c...
