Standard ECMA-222 Adaptive Lossless Data Compression Algorithm

Posted in December 5th, 2001

This page has the standard publication that defines ECMA-222, which is also apparently known as ALDC. I don’t know where this standard is used.

New Audio Coding Method Perfect for Internet

Posted in December 5th, 2001

Les Atlas at the University of Washington has developed a new method for coding speech and music for transmission over slow lines. The technique, called fine-grain scalable audio encoding, prioritizes the most important part of the signal, allowing reconstruction at the remote end even if the face of lost packets.

Nancy codec to give MPEG-4 a run for its money

Posted in December 1st, 2001
Published in Hardware, Video

Nancy is the name of a lightweight video codec being used to send video email in the J-Phone design in Japan. The proprietary algorithm uses something called the Structured Meta Scale Polygon to compress data with fewer MIPS than its competition. Nancy can compress and decompress 30 fps at QCIF resolution with as little as […]
