While the number of transistors on a chip increases exponentially over time, the productivity that can be realized from these systems has not kept pace. To deal with the complexit...
We propose an explicit rate indication scheme for congestion avoidance in ATM networks. In this scheme, the network switches monitor their load on each link, determining a load fac...
A simple and computationally lightweight video coder employing shape-adaptive, embedded intraframe coding and wavelet-domain conditional replenishment is proposed. Robustness to p...
We present a new semi-automatic segmentation tool, which is motivated by the Intelligent Scissors algorithm [1], but which uses a modified concept of user-interaction. This new in...

A fast mode decision method for Intra prediction in H.264 is proposed in this work to reduce the encoder complexity. The proposed algorithm adopts a multi-stage sequential mode de...
