20090219180 | DATA CODING BUFFER FOR ELECTRICAL COMPUTERS AND DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING SYSTEMS - A method includes receiving, at a decoding device, first contents of a buffer, where the first contents of the buffer include at least a first data symbol. The first data symbol is coded into the first contents of the buffer based at least in part on a first radix of the first data symbol. The first data symbol is decoded from the first contents of the buffer. Based at least in part on the first radix of the first data symbol, it is determined whether the first contents of the buffer include a second data symbol. The second data symbol is decoded from the first contents of the buffer if the first contents include the second data symbol. | 09-03-2009 |
20100219993 | EFFICIENT CODING OF INTEGERS IN NON-POWER-OF-TWO RANGES - Coding efficiently in non-power-of-two ranges. Coding is performed in an N-bit system, where certain codes are represented with N bits and other codes are represented with (N+1) bits. An example is where the other codes may have an N-bit representation used to represent multiple values, with the additional bit being disambiguation information provided to distinguish the codes having multiple values. Thus, N bits are used to represent most codes, and an extra bit is used to represent other codes. The number of bits per element used for representing a sequence is, on average, close to a theoretical minimum for N-bits. | 09-02-2010 |
20100219994 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPTIMIZING BIT UTILIZATION IN DATA ENCODING - In one of many possible embodiments, a system for optimizing bit utilization in data encoding is provided. The exemplary system includes a data processing subsystem configured to identify a total number of unique characters within a set of data, which number represents an original base of representation of the set of data. The data processing subsystem is further configured to convert the set of data to a base of representation that is higher than the original base of representation and then encode the base-converted data with a fixed-length encoding scheme. | 09-02-2010 |
20100289675 | Method of transforming geographic coordinate - A method of transforming a geographic coordinate to a geographic location code includes the steps of: retrieving a latitude value and a longitude value of the geographic coordinate; quantizing the latitude value to a first integer value; quantizing the longitude value to a second integer value; converting the first integer value to a first code string, said first code string including a first digit representing a non-numeric character, a second digit representing a non-numeric character, and a third digit representing a numeric character; converting the second integer value to a second code string, said second code string including a fourth digit representing a non-numeric character, a fifth digit representing a non-numeric character, and a sixth digit representing a numeric character; and combining the first code string and the second code string to obtain the geographic location code having a fixed pattern of radix in a mixed radix notation system representation. | 11-18-2010 |
20140266819 | COMPACTLY STORING GEODETIC POINTS - Mechanisms are provided for the compact storage of geographical geometries as a collection of points, where individual points are encoded as binary/ternary strings (with the property that points closer to each other share a longer binary/ternary prefix) and the geometry is encoded by compressing the binary/ternary representation of common-prefix points. Mechanisms are also provided for the representation of a geometry using a ternary string that allows efficient storage of arbitrary shapes (e.g., long line segments, oblong polygons) as opposed to binary representations that are more efficient when the geometries are square or nearly square shaped. | 09-18-2014 |

20080238736 | BINARY-TO-BCD CONVERSION - Disclosed herein are various embodiments of circuitry and methods to convert from a binary value to a BCD value. | 10-02-2008 |
