Trade-offs in bit-rate allocation for wireless video streaming
One of the central problems in video transmission over lossy channels is the choice of source and channel coding rates to allocate the available transmission rate optimally. In th...

An Evaluation of Content Browsing Techniques for Hierarchical Space-Filling Visualizations
Space-filling visualizations, such as the TreeMap, are well-suited for displaying the properties of nodes in hierarchies. To browse the contents of the hierarchy, the primary mode...

Nonembeddability theorems via Fourier analysis
Various new nonembeddability results (mainly into L1) are proved via Fourier analysis. In particular, it is shown that the Edit Distance on {0, 1}d has L1 distortion (log d) 1 2 ...

Using early phase termination to eliminate load imbalances at barrier synchronization points
We present a new technique, early phase termination, for eliminating idle processors in parallel computations that use barrier synchronization. This technique simply terminates ea...

Information Transmission Over Fading Channels
Abstract— We consider the lossy transmission of source information over Rayleigh fading channels. We investigate the utility of two channel capacity definitions, ergodic capacit...

Distortion evaluation in transform domain for adaptive lifting schemes
Abstract—In this paper we study the problem of evaluating the reconstruction distortion in the wavelet domain when adaptive lifting schemes (ALS) are used for the direct and inve...
