Petri Nets and higher order versions like Predicate Transition Nets (Pr/T-Nets) are very suitable for modeling event-oriented discrete and even parallel systems. Obviously, the ne...
A Joint source-channel coding (JSCC) scheme for SPIHT coded image transmission over OFDM systems with spatial diversity is proposed where no feedback channel is available. By usin...
This paper explores the usefulness of a technique from software engineering, namely code instrumentation, for the development of large-scale natural language grammars. Information...
On sparse images, contiguous runs of identical symbols often occur in the same coding context. This paper proposes a model for efficiently encoding such runs in a twodimensional s...
In this paper we propose an algorithm to partition MPEG-4 video objects into temporal segments with uniform activity levels. These segments can be used for efficient summarization...
