1.1 BACKGROUND Every activity in modern life is influenced by plastics and many depend entirely on plastic products due to their useful material properties and low production costs. Almost every product is constituted of some kind of polymer; however‚ traditional synthetic polymers (often called plastics)‚ such as polypropylene and polyethylene‚ are derived from non-renewable petrochemicals and are not readily biodegradable (http://www.plastice.org/ fileadmin/files/Brochure_teachers.pdf). The need

Traditional categories of deixis are: person‚ time and place Person deixis concerns the encoding of the role of participants in the speech event. According to grammatical categories of person we distinguish: first person is the grammaticalization of the speaker’s reference to himself second person is the encoding of the speaker’s reference to one or more addressees third person is the encoding of reference to persons and entities which are neither speakers nor addressees of the utterance

Multimedia Compression techniques 4.0 Introduction In this unit we are discussing about the data compression which is very important for multimedia applications because uncompressed graphics‚ audio‚ and video data require considerable storage capacity. Compressing a data file reduces its size‚ and hence it can be easily transferred over the digital network. The amount of compression depends on the compression method and compression rate. The terms compression

Richard Mohs (n.d.)‚ encoding is a biological phenomenon this is rooted in the senses and begins with perception. The better the encoding implies that both the ability to store and retrieve information will also improve (Terry‚ 2009). One way to better the encoding process is to engage in or separate the conditions of learning while not changing the conditions of storage and retrieval. This can be applied to the memory test this author participated in described above. Visual encoding took place as I

Version 2 ECE IIT‚ Kharagpur Instructional Objectives At the end of this lesson‚ the students should be able to: 1. Explain the principle of embedded coding. 2. Show the parent-child relationships between subbands of same orientation. 3. Define significance and insignificance of DWT coefficients with respect to a threshold. 4. Define zerotree and zerotree root. 5. Perform successive approximation quantization

information that is in active use. The encoding that takes place here is mainly visual and acoustic. If information is not rehearsed and therefore may not be recalled‚ it will have been displaced from the short term memory. If information is rehearsed if will then be passed onto the long term memory store‚ where it may remain for as long as a lifetime. According to this model of memory‚ long term memory has a potentially immeasurable capacity and duration. The type of encoding is semantic‚ loss of information
