Dick, “Intelligent Scene Caching to Improve Accuracy for Energy-Constrained Embedded Vision,” in Proc. of the Conf. on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Wkshps., June 2020, pp. 724–725. Notes: Change-based video data caching to reduce transfer in energy- and communication-constrained applications. Works better than H.264 in some cases.
    2. L. Yang, H. Lekatsas, R. P. Dick, and S. Chakradhar, “On-line memory compression for embedded systems,” ACM Trans. Embedded Computing Systems, vol. 9, no. 3, pp. 27:1–27:30, Feb. 2010. Notes: Operating system technique to double usable memory in embedded systems without changing applications, or hardware, and with little or no performance or power penalty. NEC uses this technology in their cellphones.
