Abstract:
A system and a process for a session layer protocol allows a large number of client machines to receive a reliable data stream over inherently unreliable multicast connections in a highly efficient and scalable manner. More specifically, streaming of high-quality video, audio, stock and news tickers, or any other application specific data that requires a reliable data stream is described. The streaming allows for the source to instruct individuals to drop their connection to the stream to prevent noisy individuals from disrupting the operating efficiency of the stream.

Abstract:
A method of compressing text and graphic images for storage on a computer memory device. The first step of the invention is the importation of a TIFF or EPS file to be compressed into a conversion program where it is converted to a JPEG or PICT filt type. The next step is to import the converted file into a basic authoring program that is written to allow importation of JPEG or PICT files. Once the file has been inserted into the authoring program, a standard compressor is selected and used to perform compression, such compressors being preferably "CINEPAK" of JPEG. Once the file-images have been compressed to a level desired, the images are then stored or fixed or transmitted in their compressed form in their new file-type. The next step is the decompression of the file-images and the viewing thereof. When the compressed file is selected for viewing, a decompression and conversion program is run to decompress the file and convert it back into its original file-type, TIFF or EPS, at which time, it may be processed by an OCR program.
