Nowadays, for better image quality compression-first schemes are preferred over the conventional demosaicing-first schemes. In some high-end photography applications, original CFA images are required; in such cases lossless compression of CFA images is necessary. A fair performance is obtained for CFA images by lossless image compression methods like JPEG-LS, JPEG-2000, etc. The proposed method mainly aims at exploiting a context matching technique to rank the neighboring pixels when predicting a pixel in a CFA image. It reorders the neighboring samples such that closest neighboring samples of the same color are predicted on higher context similarity. Adaptive color difference estimation follows the adaptive codeword generation technique to adjust the divisor of rice code for encoding the prediction residues. From Simulation results, the proposed algorithm achieved a better compression performance as compared with conventional lossless CFA image coding methods. The experimental results are obtained to prove the proposed method is having best average compression ratio as compared with the latest lossless Bayer image compression algorithms using MATLAB, a technical computing language.","PeriodicalId":254761,"journal":{"name":"Recent Advances in Space Technology Services and Climate Change 2010 (RSTS & CC-2010)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130683328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the SEIG fed cascaded five level inverters for induction motor load systems are clearly explained with the help of MATLAB / SIMULINK models. The generated voltage of the wind driven self - excited induction generator (SEIG) is mainly depending on the wind velocity fluctuations, appropriate capacitance values and load conditions. The five level cascaded inverters has interface with the wind driven self - excited induction generator (SEIG). The variable magnitude, variable frequency voltage of the generator can be controlled by choosing the proper modulation index.

Satellite Attitude determination and control system is an integral part of any satellite. For satellites in LEO an interaction with the local geomagnetic field is an important means of controlling the attitude or orientation. Attitude estimation is highly nonlinear due to the inherent nonlinearity in rotational kinematics, satellite attitude dynamics, and the nature of information through sensors, such as magnetometers. For attitude control, actuators must be based primarily on space and weight minimization. It uses three magnetic torque coils which are oriented orthogonally to each other.

A report by the Energy Information Administration says that about 98 percent of CO2 emissions (or 87 percent of all CO2- equivalent emissions from all greenhouse gases) can be directly attributed to energy consumption. The major challenge of many organizations today is a desire to operate in a “green” manner, publishing principles for environmental practices and sustainability on their corporate Web. In addition, many companies are now paying some kind of carbon tax for the resources they consume and the environmental impact of the products and services they produce, so a reduction in energy consumed can have a real financial payback. In this paper, we focus on reduction in energy consumption over the full equipment life cycle as the prime motivator for “green” application design; with energy reduction as the best measure of “green-ness”. Green IT refers to the study and practice of using computing resources in an efficient, effective and economic way. The various approaches of the green IT are Virtualization, Power management, Material recycling and Telecommuting. In which Virtualization platforms can run across hundreds of interconnected physical computers and storage devices, to create an entire virtual infrastructure. Cloud computing is the concept of equal sharing of resources among nodes. Cloud virtualization refers the process of running two or more logical computer systems on one set of hardware with equal sharing of resources. The challenge of the existing system is reduction of efficiency due server virtualization. In this paper, we propose a new system that connects more number of nodes with minimum number of servers. The sole motivation of this paper is reducing energy consumption using cloud virtualization clique star cover number technique.","PeriodicalId":254761,"journal":{"name":"Recent Advances in Space Technology Services and Climate Change 2010 (RSTS & CC-2010)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115044684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long length convolutions implemented on a FPGA are not area, power efficient and also it cannot be implemented on a single FPGA. To increase the speed of long convolutions and to meet the calculation capacity of each single FPGA chip, the long coefficient sequence can be partitioned into short sub-sequences. Each short length convolution can then be made area efficient at the expense of decrease in speed by implementing them as a convolution ASIP. The asynchronous ASIP is still faster than a synchronous ASIP. The speed of an asynchronous convolution processor can be further increased by applying Algorithmic Strength Reduction (ASR) where the number of multiplications, (which is more time consuming than an addition) is alleviated at the expense of increase in the number of additions required in a convolution process. Several algorithms based on ASR which would lead to a faster convolution ASIP have been discussed.","PeriodicalId":254761,"journal":{"name":"Recent Advances in Space Technology Services and Climate Change 2010 (RSTS & CC-2010)","volume":"47 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120806378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
