Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method and apparatus for image encoding and decoding using prediction based on a block shape. Whether a prediction mode is available for a target block is determined. The determination is performed based on the shape of the target block. When the prediction mode is determined to be unavailable for the target block, signaling related to the prediction mode may be omitted, and determination of an additional prediction mode is performed. When the prediction mode is determined to be available for the target block, information indicating whether the prediction mode is to be used for the target block is signaled.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, apparatus, and storage medium for image encoding/decoding. In the image decoding method, whether filtering is to be performed across a boundary of a target block is determined, and filtering strength for the boundary of the target block and the number of samples to be used for filtering are determined. Based on this determination, filtering across the boundary of the target block is performed. When the filtering strength and the number of samples are determined, coding parameters related to the target block and a neighbor block, such as a block size and a prediction mode, are used.

Abstract: Provided is a geothermal heat system having reduced heat source residual heat of a geothermal heat pump. The geothermal heat system includes a ground heat exchanger unit, a geothermal heat pump, and a residual heat storage tank. A portion of heat source residual heat remaining in the geothermal heat pump is transferred on a geothermal heat exchange medium passing through the geothermal heat pump so as to be stored in the residual heat storage tank.

At least a portion of the heat source residual heat produced during provision of cooling/heating to the location of use is processed, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the geothermal heat system having reduced heat source residual heat of a geothermal heat pump.

A number of external command/address terminals may be reduced without reducing a set of commands and/or address space. Alternatively, a number of external terminals may be maintained, but provide for an expanded set of commands and/or address space.

Abstract: Described apparatuses and methods provide configurable error correction code (ECC) circuitry and schemes that can utilize a shared ECC engine between multiple memory banks of a memory, including a low-power double data rate (LPDDR) memory. A memory device may include one or more dies with multiple memory banks. The configurable ECC circuitry can use an ECC engine that services a memory bank by producing ECC values based on data stored in the memory bank when data-masking functionality is enabled. When data-masking functionality is disabled, the configurable ECC circuitry can use the shared ECC engine that services at least two memory banks by producing ECC values with a larger quantity of bits based on respective data stored in the at least two memory banks. By using the shared ECC engine responsive to the data-masking functionality being disabled, the ECC functionality can provide higher data reliability with lower die area utilization.
