Network impairments such as delay and packet losses have severe impact on the presentation quality of many predictive video sources. Prior researches (e.g., [1]-[3][5]-[9][11]-[13...
In the upcoming video coding standard, MPEG-4 AVC/JVT/H.264, motion estimation is allowed to use multiple references and multiple block sizes to improve the rate-distortion perfor...
Abstract— Landmark-based graphs are a useful and parsimonious tool for representing large scale environments. Relating landmarks by means of feedback-control algorithms encoded i...
Parallel and distributed simulations enable the analysis of complex systems by concurrently exploiting the aggregate computation power and memory of clusters of execution units. I...
