Abstract: A method, system, and articles of high throughput arithmetic entropy coding for video coding uses a non-framewidth raster order or non-raster order to form spatial neighbor probability contexts for entropy coding.

Abstract: An apparatus of video encoding is described herein. The apparatus includes an encoder and a hardware bit packing unit. The encoder comprises at least a fixed function dual hierarchical motion estimation search units, dual integer motion estimation search units, and a fractional motion estimation search unit. Moreover, the hardware bit packing unit is to pack bits as coded according to the final macroblock coding decision into a data format.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods are described including determining a first value by reducing a bit-length of a reference pixel value and adding a first predetermined value to the result and determining a second value by subtracting a residual pixel value from a current pixel value to generate a difference value, reducing a bit-length of the difference value and adding the first predetermined value to the result. The range of the second value may then be clipped by setting the second value to zero when the second value is equal to or less than a second predetermined value and setting the second value to a third predetermined value when the second value is equal to or greater than a fourth predetermined value. The first value and the second value may then be used for inter-layer residual prediction in Scalable Video Coding (SVC) systems.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for wireless network virtualization through sequential auctions and conjectural pricing. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a plurality of service providers operable to bid on network resources on behalf of a plurality of individual receivers and a wireless network operator, communicably coupled to the plurality of service providers, to perform resource allocation using an auction to allocate network resources to the plurality of service providers based on instantaneous channel conditions and traffic information of each of the individual receivers and to schedule transmissions in time and space to the individual receivers.

Abstract: A network system providing highly reliable transmission quality for delay-sensitive applications with online learning and cross-layer optimization is disclosed. Each protocol layer is deployed to select its own optimization strategies, and cooperates with other layers to maximize the overall utility. This framework adheres to defined layered network architecture, allows layers to determine their own protocol parameters, and exchange only limited information with other layers. The network system considers heterogeneous and dynamically changing characteristics of delay-sensitive applications and the underlying time-varying network conditions, to perform cross-layer optimization. Data units (DUs), both independently decodable DUs and interdependent DUs, are considered. The optimization considers how the cross-layer strategies selected for one DU will impact its neighboring DUs and the DUs that depend on it.
