Video traffic is widely expected to account for a large portion of the traffic in future wireline
and wireless networks, as multimedia applications are becoming increasingly popular …

Video transcoding, due to its high practical values for a wide range of networked video
applications, has become an active research topic. We outline the technical issues and …

Sulfated zirconia with S content of 2 wt.% equivalent to complete coverage of its surface was
studied by infrared spectroscopy. At least four sulfated species were identified and exhibited …

We address the problem of real-time video streaming over wireless LANs for both unicast
and multicast transmission. The wireless channel is modeled as a packet-erasure channel at …

The technological advances in Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and wireless
communications have enabled the realization of wireless sensor networks (WSN) comprised …

Digital images have become mainstream of late notably within HDTV, cell phones, personal
cameras, and many medical applications. The processing of digital images and video …

In this two-part paper, we present a new achievable rate region for the general n-channel
symmetric multiple descriptions problem. In part I, inspired by the concept of maximum …

This article focuses on FEC for scalable image coders. For various channel models, we
survey recent progress made in system design and discuss efficient source-channel bit …

The next-generation wireless Internet (NGWI) is expected to provide a wide range of
services including high-speed data and real-time multimedia to mobile users. To realize this …

In this Part II of a two-part paper, we present a new achievable rate-distortion region for the
symmetric n-channel multiple-descriptions coding problem (n> 2) where the rate of every …
