Modern video coding architectures are at the forefront of addressing the increasing demands for efficient data compression, high-resolution broadcasting, and real-time processing in a global ...

How cutting-edge codecs and obsessive tweaks have helped Netflix to stay ahead of the curve — until now. If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics ...

Maya Angelou once said, "You can't really know where you are going until you know where you have been," and so it is with per-title encoding. What began as a one-dimensional data rate adjustment that ...

In the field of computer science, there is perhaps no more fundamental task than to sort. Bubble, heap, merge—take your pick. The methods for reordering data inside a computer have been theorized to ...

Lossy compression schemes can be based on a source model, as in the case of speech compression, or a user or sink model, as is somewhat the case in image compression. In this chapter we look at audio ...

Coding can help students understand the building blocks of world languages, and it provides an authentic way to tell stories.

A new technique for efficient encoding of LDPC codes based on the known concept of Approximate Lower Triangulation (ALT) is introduced. The greedy permutation algorithm is presented to transform ...
