A shared memory abstraction can be robustly emulated over an asynchronous message passing system where any process can fail by crashing and possibly recover (crash-recovery model), by having (a) the processes exchange messages to synchronize their read and ...
Communications is about conveying information from one point to another subject to certain performance constraints. The information is assumed to be generated by a source and may, for example, represent a voice waveform, the reading of a thermal sensor, or ...
We address the problem of joint path selection and rate allocation in multipath streaming in order to optimize a media specific quality of service. An optimization problem is proposed, which aims at minimizing a video distortion metric based on sequence-de ...
We consider streaming of pre-encoded and packetized media over best-effort networks in presence of acknowledgment feedbacks. We first review the rate-distortion optimization framework in such scenarios. Given an estimation of future transmission resources, ...
In much of the literature devoted to face recognition, experiments are performed with controlled images (e.g. manual face localization, controlled lighting, background and pose); however, a practical recognition system has to be robust to more challenging ...
The new Motion JPEG 2000 standard is providing with some compelling features. It is based on an intra-frame wavelet coding, which makes it very well suited for wireless applications. Indeed, the state-of-the-art wavelet coding scheme achieves very high cod ...
This paper introduces a simple, fast, and efficient algorithm for image change detection in the compressed domain. The proposed technique operates directly on Discrete Cosine Transformed (DCT-ed) data which makes it suitable for processing compressed bitst ...
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques are a key enabling technology for high-rate wireless communications. This paper discusses two ASIC implementations of MIMO sphere decoders. The first ASIC attains maximum-likelihood performance with an avera ...
In this paper, we present full-reference as well as no-reference metrics for typical JPEG 2000 compression artifacts, namely blur and ringing. These metrics are based on an analysis of the edges and adjacent regions in an image. Their perceptual significan ...
In this paper we introduce a low complexity and accurate technique for target image search and retrieval. This method, which oper- ates directly in the compressed JPEG domain, addresses two of the CBIR challenges stated by The Benchathlon Network regarding ...
