Planning for the optimal attainment of requirements is an important early lifecycle activity. However, such planning is difficult when dealing with competing requirements, limited...
—Many important audio coding applications, such as streaming and playback of stored audio, involve offline compression. In such scenarios, encoding delays no longer represent a ...
—The optimal performance-complexity tradeoff for error-correcting codes at rates strictly below the Shannon limit is a central question in coding theory. This paper proposes a nu...

—In this paper, we present a near-lossless compression scheme for scalar-quantized source codec parameters based on iterative source-channel decoding (ISCD). The scheme is compar...

Abstract. In order to effectively and quickly answer queries in environments with distributed RDF/OWL, we present a query optimization algorithm to identify the potentially relevan...
