  A Memory Efficient No List SPECK (NSK) Wavelet Image Coder for Memory-constrained Applications

  By N. R. Kidwai, Ekram Khan, Rizwan Beg

  Abstract: In this paper, a fast and memory-efficient listless version of set-partitioned embedded block (SPECK) image coder is proposed. Due to the use of linked lists, the original SPECK algorithm requires large run-time memory, making it unsuitable for memory-constrained applications. The proposed coder replaces linked list with small fixed size static memory, to keep track of blocks in set partitioning only and use only two markers to facilitate coding. Replacement of …
