  • Patent number: 8767823
    Abstract: A method for frame memory compression divides each of a plurality of image frames in a frame memory into a plurality of blocks and quantizes a plurality of pixel values inside each block according to a predefined parameter, thereby generating a quantized block and a plurality of removed bits from the binary representation of the plurality of pixel values. A predictor is used to produce a residual block for the quantized block. A variable length encoder takes the residual block as an input and produces a coded bitstream. A packing unit is used to take the coded bitstream and the number of removed bits generated by the quantizer as inputs, so as to produce an entire codeword sequence of the block that meets a target bit rate by using a structure called group of blocks (GOB) to flexibly share available spaces of the blocks in the same GOB.

  • Publication number: 20120078753
    Abstract: A network business transaction system includes a foreground system and a background system. The foreground system has an order module. The background system has a commodity management module for sellers to share their own commodities with other sellers for consignment sale, and to share commodities of the other sellers in their own online stores for selling as agent for buyers to shop and purchase. When the commodity is owned by the seller, the commodity management module notifies the seller for account processing and commodity delivery processing. When the commodity is a commodity for consignment sale, the commodity management module notifies the original seller of the commodity who owned the commodity for account processing and commodity delivery processing. Therefore, each seller in the system can determine whether its commodities are willing to share with other sellers for consignment sale to ensure better product circulation.
