New fast intra-prediction mode selection algorithm based on spatio-temporal predicting for H.264 by XU Ping, SHE Qing-shan, JIN Zhao-yang, XU Wei-dong

“…A new fast intra-prediction mode selection algorithm based on spatio-temporal predicting for H.264 was pre-sented.Using the correlation of spatial and temproal domain in video sequence and constructing the probability histogram of intra prediction mode in the spatial and temporal domain,Pan’s algorithm based on edge direction histogram was im-proved.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly reduce coding time and enhance the per-formance of H.264 while maintaining same image quality and output rate.…”

Temporal fair active queue management algorithm for multi-rate 802.11 WLAN by HUANG Jia-wei, WANG Jian-xin

“…A temporal fair AQM-TFRED（temporal fair RED） on AP（access point） in multi-rate 802.11 WLAN was proposed.Taking into account the transmission rate of each flow,TFRED set different drop probability for each flow go-ing through the AP to guarantee equal channel usage time for each wireless node.Analysis and simulation results show that,compared with throughput fair AQM algorithms,TFRED achieves temporal fairness,per-flow throughput protection,and increase in total throughput.…”
