Digitization has a persuasive impact on information and communication technology (ICT) field which can be realized from the fact that today one seldom think to stand in long awaiting queue just to deposit utility bills, buy movie ticket, or dispatch private letters via post office etc. as these and other such similar activities are now preferably being done electronically over internet which ha...

A new ASCII encoding of the International Phonetic Alphabet IPA and additional symbols has been designed for all languages Many of the previous ASCII versions were targeted at European languages and therefore left out many of the sounds of the other languages or used symbols for unusual sounds like clicks for plosive bursts When an attempt was made to label a large number of languages with phon...

Storage and transmission limitations have made electrocardiogram (ECG) data compression an important aspect for ECG computerized systems. In this paper a lossless method based on modified American standard code for information Interchange (ASCII) character encoding for ECG data compression have been proposed. The Proposed method consists of compression algorithm comprising sign count; generatio...

and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months. Internet-Drafts may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is not appropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference material or to cite them other than as a "working draft" or "work in progres...

We describe a digitally linearized thermistor thermometer that is accurate to +/- 0.01 degrees C from 0 to 60 degrees C at a wattage of 50 microW and a sampling time of 1 s. It is traceable to the International Practical Temperature Scale of 1968 (IPTS-68). Analog and digital outputs are provided, the latter as ASCII RS-232C. The thermistor is a 10-cm long immersible probe, 1.5 mm in diameter. ...

In order to solve the problem of text image containing the complex background in which the text of image cannot be read clearly and intuitively, this paper proposed a filtering method based on the Harris cornerpoint detection. The experimental results show that the algorithm can filter the background which contains text image commendably, making it possible for visually reading.

A dwindling fraction of authors of I-Ds and RFCs are still fluent in nroff, the official input format for RFCs. With the use of other tools, the consistency and layout quality of RFCs and I-Ds has suffered. Printing, hyperlinking and viewing of ASCII documents are unsatisfactory. In this document, we investigate how the I-D and RFC series can be upgraded in usability while maintaining stability...

In this paper a new lossless binary text image coding technique based on overlapping partitioning is presented. In this technique, the black regions in the image are#rst partitioned into a number offully overlapping and nonoverlapping rectangles. A f e r partitioning, the two opposite vertices of each rectangle are compressed using a simple encoding technique. It has been demostrated that the c...

Quote of the Day Protocol This RFC specifies a standard for the ARPA Internet community. Hosts on the ARPA Internet that choose to implement a Quote of the Day Protocol are expected to adopt and implement this standard. A useful debugging and measurement tool is a quote of the day service. A quote of the day service simply sends a short message without regard to the input. One quote of the day ...
