From the Publisher: Imprecise and Approximate Computation is a collection of chapters which chart the current state of the art in imprecise and approximate computation. Real-time systems are now used in a wide variety of applications including space systems defense systems, process control and signal processing. The concept of imprecise and approximate computations can be utilized in a wide variety of application areas, including signal processing, machine vision, databases, networking, and dependability in real-time systems. The book not only describes research results already obtained, but also discusses directions for further research. Imprecise and Approximate Computation is useful to practitioners interested in building dynamic real-time systems, which must deal safely with resource unavailability. Imprecise and approximate computation has a variety of applications in systems where resource limitations and the requirements of continuous system operation create situations where sometimes computations cannot be carried through to the desired completion. Imprecise and Approximate Computation is of special interest to researchers who wish to familiarize themselves with the current accomplishments in this area, with a view to extending the research results. This book may also be used as supplementary reading in a course on real-time systems.

Video and Image Processing in Multimedia Systems treats a number of critical topics in multimedia systems, with respect to image and video processing techniques and their implementations. These techniques include: Image and video compression techniques and standards, and Image and video indexing and retrieval techniques. Video and Image Processing in Multimedia Systems is divided into three parts. Part I serves as an introduction to multimedia systems, discussing basic concepts, multimedia networking and synchronization, and an overview of multimedia applications. Part II presents comprehensive coverage of image and video compression techniques and standards, their implementations and applications. Because multimedia data (specifically video and images) require efficient compression techniques in order to be stored and delivered in real-time, video and image compression is a crucial element of an effective multimedia system. In Part III attention is focused on the semantic nature of image and video source material, and how that material may be effectively indexed and retrieved. Topics discussed include static images, full-motion video, and the manner in which compressed representations can facilitate structural analysis. Part III concludes with an extended discussion of a case study. This book serves as an invaluable reference with respect to the most important standards in the field. Video and Image Processing in Multimedia Systems is suitable as a textbook for course use.
