With more and more video surging across the Internet not just to computers but also televisions and handheld devices, something that could relieve the congestion or improve the quality would be a huge ...

Can you put a one-hour HD movie in 8 kilobytes of memory? Impossible. But some people believe that was the case in what appeared to be a revolutionary compression technology with a compression factor ...

LAS VEGAS — Companies are entering the gun lap in the race to define compression standards for digital cinema as the Moving Picture Experts Group gears up to test a raft of silicon-intensive ...

Monitoring the flow of blood to the brain can reveal much about how it works. An increase in blood flow usually accompanies neuronal activity, whereas a decrease in the flow can be indicative of ...

Information theory provides the fundamental framework for understanding and designing data compression algorithms. At its core lies the concept of entropy, a quantitative measure that reflects the ...

MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS, Barcelona, Spain, February 25, 2013 – MIPI Alliance and the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) today announced a collaborative liaison to specify data compression ...

Power is an increasingly important consideration for the majority of system designers. This is particularly true in the case of small handheld consumer devices such as cameras, camcorders and mobile ...

Test compression sounds like magic. Read on to learn how this trick is done. Large, complex ICs are viable because their design meets test as well as functional requirements. Design for test (DFT) was ...

Design automation is the key to the development of very large ICs. Optimizing the connection and layout of millions of gates to efficiently perform complex functions is not a job to which humans are ...
