As the methods of preparing, transmitting, and presenting images proliferate, we are all challenged to make the best use possible of each imaging technology. http://tc.eserver.org/25651.html http://tc.eserver.org/25651.html This page presents a brief description of how JPEG compresses images. JPEG, unlike other formats like PPM, PGM, and GIF, is a lossy compression technique; this means visual information is lost permanently. The key to making JPEG work is choosing what data to throw away. http://tc.eserver.org/25652.html http://tc.eserver.org/25652.html This paper provides a brief review of the various paths undertaken in the development of ink-jet printing. Highlights of recent progress and trends in this technology are discussed. The technologies embedded in the latest ink-jet products from current industry leaders in both thermal and piezoelectric drop-on-demand ink-jet methods are also described. Finally, this article presents a list of the potential ink-jet technology applications that have emerged in the past few years. http://tc.eserver.org/25650.html http://tc.eserver.org/25650.html This scholarship is granted by the society to a student or students of photographic or imaging science or engineering for use in continuing their studies as graduate or undergraduate students. This grant is made for academic study or research in the theory or practice of image formation by radient energy.
