— Transferring data reliably from Mars to Earth stations is becoming an appealing challenge in the design of interplanetary networks. In this view, the use of CCSDS-based protoco...
The uniform distribution of the trace map lends itself very well to the construction of binary and non-binary codes from Galois fields and Galois rings. In this paper we study the...
"Anything that one cannot measure cannot be controlled." Software metrics provide insight into the quality of software, informing the developers about the status of a pr...
In this paper, we present a new coding scheme for depth maps using a hierarchical decomposition. After we decompose a depth map into three disjoint images and a layer descriptor a...
The recursive optimal per-pixel estimate (ROPE) is an effective end-to-end distortion estimation scheme. Most existing ROPE-based applications assume that: (i) the encoder knows e...
