result in smaller files. This involves limiting the bit depth for colors in a way that humans don’t really perceive, as well as comparing individual frames to the ones ahead of and before it so that only the differences have to be shown. In an MPEG-4 video, the type used by Netflix and Apple, scenes with very little action such as in a dark room use much less data compared to an action scene because of the way this compression scheme works (IEEE, 2004). On a Blu-Ray disc,

Modern GPUs use most of their transistors to do calculations related to 3D computer graphics. They were initially used to accelerate the memory-intensive work of texture mapping and rendering polygons, later adding units to accelerate geometric calculations such as the rotation and translation of vertices into different coordinate systems. Recent developments in GPUs include support for programmable shaders which can manipulate vertices and textures with many of the same operations supported by CPUs

ISR (Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) descriptive analysis essay ISR is the coordinated and integrated acquisition, processing and provision of timely, accurate, relevant, coherent and assured information and intelligence to support commander’s conduct of activities. Land, sea, air and space platforms have critical ISR roles in supporting operations in general. By massing ISR assets, allowing a period of immersion, developing layering and cross cueing of sensors, an improved

the switch where the trunk circuits terminate • LINE MODULE – The portion of the switch where the individual POTS lines terminate 4) Explain the difference between a tandem switch and a class 5 switch: A class 5 switch is responsible for all line-side terminations. Also called end office switch because it sits at the central office. Tandem switches (class 4 switches) are used to connect class 5

darken the bubble corresponding to the correct integer in the ORS. Marking scheme : +4 If the bubble corresponding to the answer is darkened 0 In all other cases 1. The energy of a system as a function of time t is given as E(t) = A 2 exp(t), where = 0.2 s1. The measurement of A has an error of 1.25%. If the error in the measurement of time is 1.50%, the percentage error in the value of E(t) at t = 5 s is 1. [4] E(t) = A2 exp (t) (E) = 2A (A) exp (t) + A2 exp ( t) (E) = 2A exp (
