Abstract: In transform coefficient coding, predetermined sets of transforms may be used. Embodiments of the present invention provide an encoder and a decoder for encoding a picture into/from a data stream using block-based prediction and block-based residual coding, the encoder and decoder supporting a set of transforms for the block-based residual coding. The encoder and decoder are configured to determine a transform candidate list of transforms for a current residual block out of the set of transforms based on a height and a width of the current residual block, and to encode/decode a prediction residual within the residual block using one selected transform out of the selectable list of transforms and selectively signal/derive the selected transform in/from the data stream.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing enantiomerically enriched 3-hydroxymethylpiperidine and in particular of the S-enantiomer of (S)-3-hydroxymethyl-piperidine in high chemical and optical purity. The invention also relates to extremely pure (S)-3-hydroxymethylpiperidine and (R)-3-hydroxymethylpiperidine.

Abstract: A configurable architecture of a calculation device includes at least one individual configurable and/or reconfigurable switching device, whereby the output variables thereof form a time point tn-1 and the input variables of the switching device form a time point tn. Elements are provided in order to control the output variables in a clocked manner and to store the output variables of the switching device between the time points tn-1 and tn.
