Abstract: An image compression method based on JPEG-LS is presented. In the method, the M×N pixels in the source image are divided into k groups. M, N, and k are all integers larger than one. Each group corresponds to a plurality of pixels among the M×N pixels. The decorrelation procedure and the context modeling procedure are performed for each of the plurality of pixels in the ith group of the k groups. The compensation look-up table is not refreshed until all pixels in the ith group are performed with the decorrelation procedure and the context modeling procedure.

Abstract: A dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) system is provided. The DVFS system includes: a computation unit, a power management unit (PMU), a hardware activity monitor (HAM), and a hardware voltage monitor (HVM). The HAM monitors a working status and temperature information of the computation unit, and determines whether to update an operating voltage and frequency of the computation unit according to the working status, the temperature information, and a previous determination result. When the HAM determines to update the operating voltage and frequency, the HAM generates a first control signal to the PMU to calibrate the operating voltage and frequency. The HVM detects timing information of the computation unit and determine whether to fine-tune the operating voltage according to the detected timing information. When the HVM determines to fine-tune the operating voltage, the hardware monitor generates a second control signal to the PMU to fine-tune the operating voltage.
