Description:
To account for the mechanism of number transcoding, many authors have proposed various models, for example, semantic-abstract model, lexical-semantic model, triple-code model, and so on. However, almost all of them are based on the symptoms of patients with left cerebral damage. Previously, I reported two Japanese patients with right posterior cerebral infarction showing pure misallocation of ''0'' (omission: ''40265''->''4265,'' addition: ''107''->''1007,'' transposition: ''4072''->''4702'') both in writing and oral reading of Arabic numerals. To examine whether the pure misallocation of ''0'' is commonly observed in patients with right cerebral damage, I investigated writing and oral reading of Arabic numerals in 18 patients with right cerebral damage and 16 healthy controls. All patients with right cerebral damage showed pure misallocation of ''0'' both in writing and reading. The pure misallocation of ''0'' due to right cerebral damage cannot be explained by current models. It may be more useful to explain the phenomenon by regarding an Arabic numeral as graph on a two-dimensional plane composed of two axes (place-holding values and digits).

Digital Video Transcoding for Transmission and Storage
$119.95
The authors give an in-depth technical explanation of the important ideas in the transcoding of digital video. The driving motive for almost all of the algorithms is to maximise compression, for storage or in bandwidth, when transmitting. The various MPEG standards are gone into, as well as H.263 and H.264. There are numerous architectural and block diagrams of the algorithms and network arrangements.

Also useful to some readers is a chapter on cryptography and conditional access. The DES is also explained, along with a general description of block and stream ciphers. Plus, of course, you can find explanations of public key ciphers, and of its most popular implementation, RSA.

The book is suitable as an advanced text for a university course. Each chapter comes with an exercise set that should prove sufficiently challenging to many students. Additionally, researchers should find the book handy. The chapters have an extensive bibliography of [mostly] journal papers.
