Buffer storage for continuous delivery of video data

Reduced Storage Transmission Buffer Designs for an Mpeg Video Coder

DESIGNS FOR AN MPEG VIDEO CODER Y S Saw J M Hannah P M Grant Electrical Engineering, University of Edinburgh, Scotland Abstract In MPEG video encoding, e cient bu ering and rate control is especially crucial for constant bit rate (CBR) applications such as non-ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) channels and satellite communication channels. In a CBR environment, compressed video data, which is in...

Storage System Architectures for Continuous Media Data

Data storage systems are being called on to manage continuous media data types, such as digital audio and video. There is a demand by applications for \constrained-latency storage access" (CLSA) to such data: precisely scheduled delivery of data streams. We believe that anticipated quantitative improvements in processor and storage-device performance will not be su cient for current data manage...

Multiplexed phase-conjugate holographic data storage with a buffer hologram.

We describe and demonstrate a volume holographic storage system in which a phase-conjugate object beam is reconstructed by the same reference beam that was used for recording. An intermediate hologram is used as a temporary buffer, recorded with its own reference beam and the data-bearing object beam. Reading this buffer hologram with the phase conjugate of its reference beam reconstructs the p...

Buffer storage for direct steam generation

Fast reaction times and high discharge rates make steam accumulators a promising option for compensation of fast transients in insolation for solarthermal systems using steam as working medium. Using the volume of components like separator drums or heat exchangers for storage of pressurized hot water is a cost-effective approach to integrate buffer storage capacity. While the basic steam accumu...
