This study investigates computing offloading effect of cloud in real-time video personal broadcast service, whose server is mobile device. Mobile device does not have enough computing resource for encoding video. The computing burden is offloaded to cloud, which has abundant resources in terms of computing, power, and storage compared to mobile device. By reducing computing burden, computation energy can be saved while transmission data amount increases because of decreasing compression efficiency. This study shows that the optimal operation point can be found adaptively to time-varying LTE communication condition result of tradeoff analysis between offloaded computation burden and increase in amount of transmitted data.

The growing availability of broadband multimedia applications are providing strict real-time services and enabling users to feel much interactivity as well as 'sense of presence'. In that sense, there would be increased demand for what network and system have to do to fulfill the user expectations. In this paper, we implement a real-time multimedia application which make use of real-time DXT CODEC and investigate what the challenges of networking and system are. We carry out various experiments over a research network test-bed to evaluate the performance of our proposals.

Video compression exploits statistical, spatial, and temporal redundancy, as well as transform and quantization. In particular, the transform in a frequency domain plays a major role in energy compaction of spatial domain data into frequency domain data. The high efficient video coding standard uses the type-II discrete cosine transform (DCT-II) and type-VII discrete sine transform (DST-VII) to improve the coding efficiency of residual data. However, the DST-VII is applied only to the Intra $4{\times}4$ residual block because it yields relatively small gains in the larger block than in the $4{\times}4$ block. In this study, after rearranging the data of the residual block, we apply the DST-VII to the inter-residual block to achieve coding gain. The rearrangement of the residual block data is similar to the arrangement of the basis vector with a the lowest frequency component of the DST-VII. Experimental results show that the proposed method reduces the luma-chroma (Cb+Cr) BD rates by approximately 0.23% to 0.22%, 0.44% to 0.58%, and 0.46% to 0.65% for the random access, low delay B, and low delay P configurations, respectively.

As a future key industry, digital signage is being noticed that provides various type of contents and message through a digital display. In particular, korean digital signage industry gets a favorable evaluation for the high level of digital display industry and wired and wireless networking infrastructure. This paper discusses on not only the current status of digital signage in terms of the overall development and standardization, but the very recent technologies such as the ultra-high definition video and human perception that can be applied for future digital signage. Then, this paper concludes by deriving the problems with the current digital signage industry and presenting solutions for future vitalizations of digital signage.

In the 21th century, everyone feels that the multimedia system is close at hand in real life due to the rapid advance of the computer processing ability and high speed and high guality of communication services. Also the limited frequencies resource will be optimized due to rapid advances in digital video technology which is believed superior to analogue technology in information engineering. MEPG-2 has been introduced for broadcasting use such as digital TV Thus it features the high-definition and hyper-low bit rate. But, because of much throughput it has been implemented by high-priced private ASIC chip and is not in general use yet. But in this research, noticing the rapid enhancement of PC processor performance comparing with the price. MPEG-2 was developed by real time software MPEG-2 had been known impossible to implement with S/W, but the research proved the possibility of the S/W implementation and below are the pictures also in the research was improved 'Motion Vector and Compensation' Algorithm which requires the most operations and UT was made possible real time process. Multimedia Info Society has settled and accompanied by the rapid advance of image-processing technology and lots of standards.

This paper is made up Advanced Image Coding(AIC) that combines algorithms from next generation image coding standard, H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 advanced video coding(AVC) and still image compression standard, JPEG(Joint Photographic Experts Group). AIC combines intra frame block prediction from H.264 with a JPEG style discrete cosine transform and quantization, followed by Context-based Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding(CABAC) as used in H.264. In this paper, we analyzes the efficiency of the AIC algorithm and JPEG and JPEG-2000, and it presents of result.

In this paper, we proposed a fuzzy controller for the evaluation of the quantization Parameters in the H.263 coder to optimize the subjective quality of each coded frame, keeping the transmission rate constant. We adopted the Mamdani method for fuzzification and the centroid method for defuzzification. The energy and entropy are correlated to features of the HVS in spatial domain, while motion vectors are used to estimate the temporal characteristics of the signal. And then, the fuzzy inputs adapted the variance and the entropy in spatial domain, and the motion vector in temporal domain. We induced the fuzzy membership function and decided the fuzzy relevance to be compatible in visual characteristics. And then, we designed FAM banks. The fuzzy technology has been applied to a practical video compression. This results is obtained an effective rate control technique, an optimum bit allocation and a high subjective quality using fuzzy quantization.

In H.264/AVC, the first frame of a group of pictures (GOP) is encoded in intra mode which generates a large number of bits. The number of bits for the I-frame affects the qualities of the following frames of a GOP since they are encoded using the bits remaining among the bits allocated to the GOP. In addition, the first frame is used for the inter mode encoding of the following frames. Thus, the initial quantization parameter (QP) affects the following frames as well as the first frame. In this paper, an adaptive peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR)-based initial QP determination algorithm is presented. In the proposed algorithm, a novel linear model is established based on the observation of the relation between the initial QPs and PSNRs of frames. Using the linear model and PSNR results of the encoded GOPs, the proposed algorithm accurately estimates the optimal initial QP which maximizes the PSNR of the current GOP. It is shown by experimental results that the proposed algorithm predicts the optimal initial QP accurately and thus achieves better PSNR performance than that of the existing algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy controller for the evaluation of the quantization parameters in the H.263 coder. Our method adopts the Mamdani method for fuzzification and adopts the centroid method for defuzzification respectively. The inputs are variance, entropy in the spatial domain, current motion vector and previous motion vector in the temporal. Fuzzy variables are determined to be compatible in visual characteristics and fuzzy membership function is induced and then, FAM banks are designed to reduce the number of rules. In this paper, fuzzy quantization has been applied to a practical video compression. This results show that the quality of decode image enhances and the rate control method using fuzzy quantization is effective.

H.264/AVC is a new international standard for the compression of video images, in which a deblocking filter has been adopted to remove blocking artifacts. This paper proposes an efficient architecture of deblocking filter in H.264/AVC. By making good use of data dependence between neighboring $4{\times}4$ blocks, the memory size is reduced and the throughput of the deblocking filter processing is increased. Compared to the conventional deblocking filters, the proposed architecture enhances the performance of deblocking filter processing from 1.75 to 4.23 times. Hence the proposed architecture is able to perform real-time deblocking of high-resolution($2048{\times}1024$) video applications.
