CHAPTER TWO 2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW 3.1 IMAGES An image may be defined as a rectangular array of pixels. The pixel of a grayscale image is a nonnegative integer interpreted as the intensity (brightness‚ luminosity) of the image (Deever and Hemami‚ 2003). It is a picture that has been created or copied and stored in electronic form. An image can be described in terms of vector graphics or raster graphics . An image stored in raster form is sometimes called a bitmap (Margaret‚ What is image

When the act of communication is initiated‚ internal processing about information or feelings you want to share with someone else is called encoding. After encoding‚ the message is sent through either spoken or written words‚ which completes encoding process.

person in general. Without memory there would be no knowledge. The first step to memory is the encoding process. This process starts out with our two-track minds by either automatically processing information or effortful processing. Automatic processing is the unconscious encoding of everyday information‚ such as space‚ time‚ frequency‚ and well-learned word meanings. Effortful processing is the encoding that requires attention and conscious effort. Waking up to my alarm clock and getting ready for

Typically economies of scale are best implemented by larger companies able achieve and benefit from the volume of operations required to substantiate the increased investment. Economies of scope lower the cost of goods sold by focusing on specificity. The specificity achieved is not limited to any type of cost‚ but primarily involves variable costs. By channeling these resources‚ firms achieve higher efficiency in a concentrated capacity. Again‚ using Yum! Yum! Gourmet Popcorn Company as an
