Error concealment algorithms for an ATM videoconferencing system

The paper describes videoconferencing workstation using ATM for the transmission of all data and Motion-JPEG for compression of the video. Of particular interest is the work on algorithms to help conceal the errors that arise from transmission over an ATM network. Several methods are discussed and the results of some subjective assessments of typical images are presente

An investigation into the requirements for an efficient image transmission system over an ATM network

This thesis looks into the problems arising in an image transmission system when transmitting over an A TM network. Two main areas were investigated: (i) an alternative coding technique to reduce the bit rate required; and (ii) concealment of errors due to cell loss, with emphasis on processing in the transform domain of DCT-based images.

The Sixth Annual Workshop on Space Operations Applications and Research (SOAR 1992)

This document contains papers presented at the Space Operations, Applications, and Research Symposium (SOAR) hosted by the U.S. Air Force (USAF) on 4-6 Aug. 1992 and held at the JSC Gilruth Recreation Center. The symposium was cosponsored by the Air Force Material Command and by NASA/JSC. Key technical areas covered during the symposium were robotic and telepresence, automation and intelligent systems, human factors, life sciences, and space maintenance and servicing. The SOAR differed from most other conferences in that it was concerned with Government-sponsored research and development relevant to aerospace operations. The symposium's proceedings include papers covering various disciplines presented by experts from NASA, the USAF, universities, and industry
