An Internet speech gateway server is proposed to integrate the Internet and PSTN to support speech communication among users using conventional telephones connected to the PSTN. In addition to cost savings, such a system enhances the usability and versatility of the conventional telephone system and adds a new dimension to the telecommunication industry. Each gateway comprises a hardware interface connected to the server computer and a set of server software. The hardware interface includes modules to convert audio signal into a digital form suitable for transmission over the Internet, establish and terminate a telephone connection with the local trunk line, and a buffering mechanism to buffer and store encoded voice data.

2/spl times/ DVD-ROM drive has been developed under with a rate of 2.76 MB/s, double the speed of regular DVD data transfer, and low data jitter is realized by a high bandwidth equalizer (HBW EQ). A 4 Mbits SDRAM (synchronous D-RAM) is introduced as the buffer memory in order to process for data both the 2/spl times/ speed DVD-ROM and the DVD video player.

This paper proposes a distance education system based on CBM using a personal computer which is real time interactive system with the addition of an external device. This system works with educational systems that are located at multiple campuses for delivering lectures with the aid of a surveillance system. This distance education system consists of multiple functions such as white-board, multiple opposition monitoring, audio support, tool box which is based on the user-preference, and an additional environmental technique. This system has provides session management, access control functions, network control and media control. This system also provides classrooms monitoring especially, for the purpose of watching each classroom. The surveillance system transfers the status of each classroom to the host site by decreasing the load of sending video data. It also has the function of diminishing the additional cost of communication when watching and the empty classroom for monitoring at night. Using a guarding system means protects the real estate and can prevent possible loss of lives resulting from an accident, without additional costs. The system is one of the open university systems which is now a hot issue involving the use of multimedia on the network for the end-users. It is implemented on the cyberspace to provide the transmission of information between the host site and remote site.

In this paper, we attempt to develop a reliable speaker verification algorithm that is suitable for use in a home security system. A phoneme-based hidden Markov model (HMM) has been adopted for the task of speaker verification with linear predictive cepstral coefficients (LPCC) as feature vectors for our model. Individual codebooks, designed to enhance performance, are also generated for all speakers in the test database. A simple way of combining the individual phoneme scores for text independent verification is also proposed. An equal error rate (ERR) of 10.5% has been achieved using the best phoneme model and 4.5% when using the combined scores of a 4-phoneme set.

"A home security system on an intelligent network (HSSIN)", is a home security and diversified service control network architecture. It is based on the TCP/IP standard communication protocol. The network also contains intelligent network components, and was established with the aim of creating safer, faster, more effective and more economical services that can meet customized services requirements. The HSSIN was developed for the requirements of the APX-HSS of Aecl Inc. As the network complies with the standard communication protocol, it is adaptable to the multi-vendor environments of composite components, as well as capable of providing intelligent network services.

This paper describes a new software tool that addresses the deficiencies in the conventional text-based approach towards assembly language programming. The tool presents assembly codes in the form of hierarchical flow charts, whereby each layer represents a certain function or module. It is able to intelligently inspect and convert the assembly text to and from the flow chart format. An extensive collection of tools is provided for editing in the flow chart domain. The flow chart navigator allows the different parts and layers of the flow chart to be deceased easily. The ability to facilitate the visualisation of program flow and therefore aid in the debugging of codes makes this software an attractive tool for assembly programmers. This tool can also handle codes from different families of assembly languages.

This paper describes a flash memory server (FMS) for personal communication devices and embedded home information systems, such as set-top boxes and Internet phones. Flash memory is small, lightweight, shock-resistant, nonvolatile, and requires little power. Writing to flash memory segments requires erasing the segment in advance. However, erase operations are slow and power-wasting and usually decrease system performance. The number of erase cycles is also limited. To reduce the number of erase operations needed and to evenly wear the flash memory, a new flash memory management scheme has been designed. A new cleaning policy is also proposed to reduce cleaning overhead. Performance evaluations show that erase operations can be reduced by 55%.

The paper presents a distribution method based on elliptic curve public key cryptosystem (ECPKC). The notations used to describe the procedure, some of the relations and the principle of the method are taken from the work of Tsujii, Itohand Kurosawa (1993). The novelty of the proposed method is the use of the elliptic curve chord tangent group law. The most important aspect consists of the forms for the private keys and the public keys. The private keys are ordinary integers and the public keys are points on an elliptic curve. Elliptic curve systems are very good for applications with smart cards and in distributed systems, where computational power and integrated circuit space are limited.

Image coding is imperative for successful implementation of visual communications applications. With the emergence of enhanced multimedia technology, numerous video applications have emerged like multimedia conferencing, video on demand and DVDs. Coding is an essential component of all video applications and it becomes necessary to have improved coding techniques for faster applications. This paper discusses how parallel video coding on load balanced multi-processor systems can help in incorporating efficient coding techniques like vector quantization into practical applications. Two parallel processing platforms will be discussed namely the heterogeneous network of workstations and the TI C40 DSP chips. The software platforms used for these are the Parallel Virtual Machines (PVM) programming model and Parallel C respectively. An integration of the two programming models by using a PVM to Parallel C translation and the effect of load balancing for improved performance will also be discussed.

The World Wide Web has gone through many improvements since its birth. The Common Gateway Interface (CGI), client and server-side scripting, form processing, integration of Web components, better security are some of the most notable enhancements which bring higher levels of interactivity and 'intelligence' to the Web, making it more able to meet both educational and business needs. This paper concentrates on the use of Web components in practice. More specifically, to show how a component framework paradigm can be a cost-effective and time-saving solution for developers and users alike, a prototype Internet multimedia authoring tool based on a particular component framework is introduced. In a more general sense, this paper hopes to bring into perspective the viability of the current use of component frameworks on the Internet and how they can also leverage Web application development efforts which need not be restricted only to electronic books.
