摘要： A data communication system contains a dual-port/dual-access-mode storage subsystem, and a communication controller connecting between that subsystem and external data communication channels. The storage subsystem includes one or more dual-port/dual-access mode storage devices consisting of a pair of random access and sequential access memory arrays, with a parallel block transfer connection between the arrays. The sequential access array can store a large block of up to N bytes (N for example equal to 256), and the random access array can store multiple such blocks. The subsystem also has RAM and SAM access ports respectively controllable in random access and sequential access modes and respectively connecting to the random access and sequential access arrays. In random access mode a group of from 1 to 4 bytes is transferred between the controller and a specified address in the random access array, and in sequential access mode a block of up to N bytes is transferred in a sequential manner between the controller and the sequential access array and in a parallel manner between that array and a discretely addressed block of space in the random access array. Transfers of relatively long and short data communication messages are routed respectively through the SAM and RAM external ports by the controller, so as to efficiently match bandwidth requirements of external communication channels with access characteristics of the RAM and SAM ports.

摘要： A system and method of compressing original video data expressed in a plurality of digitally coded frames which enable decompression and playback of resulting compressed video data at one of a plurality of frame rates while maintaining temporal fidelity of the frames displayed. Compression includes selecting a plurality of rate streams for the compressed video data, including a highest rate stream including all of the frames of the original video data and a lowest rate stream including a subset of regularly spaced frames of the original video data. Then the initial frame in the original video data is spatially compressed and the resulting compressed data placed in the compressed video data. The initial frame is also saved as a base frame for all rate streams for subsequent temporal compression of the original video data. As frames are retrieved from the original video data in sequence, temporal compression based on frame differencing techniques between the retrieved frame and the base is carried out, with difference frames being stored to the compressed video data. Each difference frame is placed in the resulting compressed video data for later decompression and reproduction.

摘要： Decompression of video segments from a sequence of differential frames is done by selected scaling of frame resolution and color depth. A frame header indicates the computational complexity of decompression of a frame, allowing selection of scales for output resolution and color depth. Decompression proceeds by retrieving a frame from the compressed video stream in elementary units. An elementary unit is characterized by types, including an unchanged type, a homogeneous type, a pattern type and a predetermined pattern type. For a retrieved elementary unit of the unchanged type, an output pointer to a display buffer is moved by an elementary unit scaled by the output resolution scale. For a retrieved elementary unit of the homogeneous type, a color retrieved from the compressed video stream is applied to an area in the display buffer corresponding to an elementary unit scaled by the output resolution scale. For a retrieved elementary unit of the predetermined pattern type, a pattern from a table of patterns is retrieved using an index from the compressed video segment as an address. Two colors for the pattern are also retrieved and applied to the pattern.

摘要： Disclosed is a system and a method for compressing digitized color video data by generating codes into a pattern of tables for regions in frames of the video data exhibiting certain patterns. An image frame in a video data stream has a plurality of pixels assigned digitized color and luminance data. The image frame is divided into a plurality of non-overlapping elementary units, with each elementary unit comprising a plurality of pixels. For elementary units exhibiting change from the prior frame in time, elementary units having pixels with differing digitized color and luminance data are selected for pattern matching. Each pixel of an elementary unit selected for pattern matching is mapped to a pattern value. A pattern value is the same for all pixels sharing the same color and luminance data in an elementary unit. The pattern values are then grouped based on relative position in the elementary unit into offsets into associated sets of pattern match tables and error condition tables. The pattern match tables and error condition tables all relate to a single table of patterns. Entries from the offsets into each associated set of pattern match and error condition tables are then accumulated to generate indicia of pattern matches. The indicia are then compared to select a pattern which best matches the elementary unit within a preselected error tolerance. An offset into a table of patterns for the matched pattern is then generated to provide the desired code.
