Abstract: Improved lossless entropy coding techniques for coding of image data include selecting a context for entropy coding based on an ordered scan path of possible context locations. A symbol for a current location within a source image may be entropy coded based on a context of prior encoded symbols of other locations within source images, where the context is selected based on an ordered scan path enumerating a series of potential context locations within one or more source images. To select a context, a predetermined number of prior symbols may be selected by qualifying or disqualifying locations in the scan path, and then the current symbol may be encoded with a context based on prior symbols corresponding to the first qualifying context locations in the order of the scan path.

Abstract: The techniques herein provide for enhanced overlay network-based transport of traffic, such as IPsec traffic, e.g., to and from customer branch office locations, facilitated through the use of the Internet-based overlay routing infrastructure. This disclosure describes a method of providing integrity protection for traffic on the overlay network.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for improved video coding with virtual reference frames. A motion vector for prediction of a pixel block from a reference may be constrained based on the reference. In as aspect, if the reference is a temporally interpolated virtual reference frame with corresponding time close to the time of the current pixel block, the motion vector for prediction may be constrained magnitude and/or precision. In another aspect, a bitstream syntax for encoding the constrained motion vector may also be constrained. In this manner, the techniques proposed herein contribute to improved coding efficiencies.
