A central issue in the design of modern communication networks is that of providing performance guarantees. This issue is particularly important if the networks support real-time t...
While ATM bandwidth-reservation techniques are able to o er the guarantees necessary for the delivery of real-time streams in many applications (e.g. live audio and video), they s...
In this paper we rst describe how we have constructed a 3D deformable Point Distribution Model of the human hand, capturing training data semi-automatically from volume images via...
State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-a...
Abstract. Data storage systems are being called on to manage continuous media data types, such as digital audio and video. There is a demand by applications for \constrained-latenc...
