ABSTRACT- Resource allocation, including manpower and other expenses, have limited the evolution of minimally invasive surgical procedures to provide humanism and to improve surgical care for patients. Robotic enhancement has been proposed as a mechanism to improve the cost-benefit relationship for patients. To this end, we have used the robotic arm enhancement to minimize resource and personnel utilization during minimally invasive procedures. Phase I of our study has included the use of the robotic arm in 24 laparoscopic hernia repairs, cholecystectomies, and nissen fundoplications with the surgeon as a solo-surgeon, i.e., the primary surgeon is the only participant in the operative sterile field. The scrub nurse did not participate in the procedures. During this study, there were no technical mishaps, no complications related to the solo-surgeon - robotic arm concept, and the operative times were statistically similar to equivalent procedures utilizing multiple personnel. The hernia repair is least complex and most amenable to solo-surgery due to the use of only three access ports; cholecystectomy occasionally requires four access ports increasing its complexity to a measurable degree. Nissen fundoplication, however, requires five access ports and proved to be the most complex of the procedures to adapt successfully to solo-surgery utilizing robotic arm enhancement.
Phase II of our study has involved the use of a combination of technologically complex and sophisticated technology to improve outcomes in complex laparoscopic procedures. The Head-Mounted Display, AESOP, the robotic arm, and the Harmonic Scalpel have been used in 140 complex minimally invasive procedures; the procedures were laparoscopic spine surgery (24 cases), laparoscopic gastric surgery (28 cases), and laparoscopic colon resection (88 cases). The use of these sophisticated technologies added safety, improved versatility, and did not increase the length of the operative procedures. The use of multiple technologies had an additive effect on the benefits. There were no experiences in which the technologies contributed to a technical complication or an adverse result for the patients. However, the successful use of these technologies requires an in-depth educational experience for the surgeon and for the operating room team.
In a further effort to improve efficiency and control of the visual fields during minimally invasive surgery, we have tested a new prototype voice activation and instrument tracking control method for the robotic arm in order to create a nearly seamless method to control the visual field. Prototype voice activation and deactivation also allows instruments to be used in the visual field for the surgical procedure while not being used for tracking of the visual field. Tracking with the instrument utilizing a color-coded tracking system has been 100% effective in our hands, has not induced errors in technical performance of procedures, and has shortened the time required for performance of specific procedural tasks. Further, this process improves versatility for the surgeon, increases concentration, reduces fatigue and does not interfere with the position of the surgeon. Areas for improvement which have been observed utilizing these techniques are (1) the use of appropriate and consistent voice activation terminology, and (2) the proper positioning of the instrument tracking unit in the most appropriate locations on the video screen and on the instrument within the visual field.
We have concluded from these experiences that the robotic technology will continue to reduce costs and minimize risk for patients undergoing minimally invasive surgical procedures; moreover, safety, versatility, and diminished use of resources will accrue utilizing the additive benefit of sequential sophisticated technologies requiring a simultaneous educational investment in team development. Further, we conclude that with further development that voice activation and instrument tracking of robotically enhanced minimally invasive surgical procedures will improve efficiency, effectiveness, and will diminish risk, resource utilization and cost.
Surgical care of patients has heretofore enjoyed improved quality of care and diminished risk to patients due to continuous technological advancements and similar improvements for the operating room environment. Improvement associated with sophisticated technology has, however, historically been associated with an increase in resource utilization (most often measured by increased cost). The current medical economic environment, however, tends to slow the progress elucidated by technology due to the intense focus on minimizing cost and resource utilization in the healthcare environment. As a result, new and evolving technology carries a new burden; not only must the technology improve the efficiency and productivity of the surgeon and simultaneously decrease risk to the patient but it must also reduce cost and/or resource utilization in order to be considered a viable product for the current surgical operating theater.
In an attempt to address this issue, we have chosen to use robotic arm enhancement as the key technology to reduce cost in the operating theater while simultaneously diminishing patient risk and improving productivity and quality of patient care. The robotic arm is most often used in minimally invasive surgery to hold the laparoscope and camera. It moves the visual surgical field with precision under the direct control of the surgeon1. Thus, one personnel resource (a physician's assistant or assistant surgeon) is no longer required for the operative procedure allowing the individual to provide health care for other patients. Further, control of the visual field by the surgeon diminishes the need for communication between personnel and improves the focus and concentration of the surgeon. Moreover, the robotic arm maintains the optical field stable and motionless providing the surgeon with an environment for improved precision and efficiency during the surgical task(s). A further benefit of the stable, motionless image occurs in conjunction with the use of the robotic arm and 3-D technology for minimally invasive procedures. The motionless image improves the quality of the 3-D image dramatically when compared to the hand-held 3-D image. Thus, the cumulative benefit of two technologies enhances the visual field with resultant improved quality and efficiency by the surgeon as well as a concomitant diminution in the risk of error during the procedural tasks. Other sophisticated technologies which synergistically improve efficiency and thereby diminish risk as well as shorten operating time (with a commensurate decrease in costs or operating room utilization) include the Head-Mounted Display (HMD), the Harmonic Scalpel, and the Zoom Camera Lens.
The HMD provides the surgeon with a relaxed position and binocular vision thus further improving the stability of the visual surgical image2. The HMD specifically allows the surgeon to always work in a normal hand-eye axis thus avoiding inefficient and dangerous paradoxic motion3. It also enhances the benefits of 3-D technology with the addition of binocular vision4 providing a circumstance to further improve efficiency and decrease risk thus improving outcome.
The Harmonic Scalpel is a versatile laparoscopic instrument which cuts, coagulates, acts as a retractor, grasper, pointer, sharp dissector, and blunt dissector5. Its use diminishes instrument exchanges and thereby increases the focus of the surgeon, diminishes the need for intermittently changing operative visual fields for instrument exchange, with resultant cumulative benefits in the areas of efficiency, operative time, patient risk, and ultimate resource utilization.
The zoom camera lens adds the opportunity for the surgical operative field to be a fish-eye panoramic view versus a very close detailed view being under the direct control of the surgeon and changeable by the turn of a switch. This added versatility in the size of the visual field adds a magnitude of versatility to the use of the robotic arm.
The robotic arm technology currently is controlled by the surgeon with a foot pedal. While the foot pedal provides reasonable control by the surgeon, other foot pedals compete for space and attention in the operating theater. Other forms of control and activation of the robotic arm and subsequent control of the visual field would seem to be beneficial.
To address these issues, we have designed a three-part
study; the first is the performance of solo-surgeon procedures
(solo-surgery) using robotic enhancement6 as the aid;
the second is the cumulative and synergistic benefits of multiple
sophisticated technologies (along with the robotic arm) to enhance
efficiency in complex minimally invasive procedures; and the third
phase is to investigate the use of prototype instrument tracking
and voice activation to control the robotic arm and subsequently
control the visual laparoscopic field of view.
Phase I: We performed solo-surgeon surgery for 24 patients who were electively undergoing either laparoscopic hernia repair, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, or laparoscopic nissen fundoplication. In all cases, solo-surgery was defined as "performance of the operative procedure without the help of an assistant, a nurse, or another surgeon." The scrub nurse did not help the surgeon during the procedure. In all cases, the time of the operative procedure, operative technical mishaps, and the number of occasions that the laparoscope was removed from the abdomen to clean the tip were recorded. The laparoscope was affixed to the robotic arm in all cases and control of the robotic arm, the laparoscope, and the subsequent optical surgical field of view were controlled by the surgeon using a foot pedal control. These data were compared to similar data collected from patients undergoing these three minimally invasive procedures in circumstances in which robotic arm enhancement was not used and the surgery was not performed by solo-surgeon.
During each of the laparoscopic solo-surgeon procedures, a second surgeon or a Physician's Assistant was immediately available to help the solo-surgeon in circumstances of necessity.
Phase II: To assess the cumulative benefits of the robotic arm plus other sophisticated technologies in improving efficiency during highly complex minimally invasive surgical procedures, we utilized robotic arm enhancement plus a combination of HMD, 3-D Optics, the fish-eye Zoom Lens, the Harmonic Scalpel, and the ergonomic sitting position during 140 elective procedures. The procedural experiences were laparoscopic anterior spine surgery (24 cases), laparoscopic gastric surgery (28 cases), and laparoscopic colon resection (88 cases). The number of operative technical mishaps, the category of the first assistant (surgeon vs. physician's assistant), and the number of times the scope was removed to clean the tip were recorded. These data were compared to comparable data recorded for patients undergoing these procedures in the absence of sophisticated technologies.
Phase III: The porcine model was used to study instrument
tracking and voice activation of the robotic arm in order to move
the operative field of view by the surgeon. For instrument tracking,
computer activation of a color sensor by a blue tape on the shaft
of the surgeon's instrument in the operative field was used. Once
the field of view was moved to a new location by the device tracking
the blue shaft on the surgeon's instrument, the tracking was de-activated.
Complex laparoscopic skills were performed including running the
bowel, suturing, tying, and dissecting adhesions using the instrument
tracking device. The ability or inability to move the visual field
appropriately during the performance of complex skills was recorded.
To determine the ability of voice activation to control the operative
field of view using the robotic arm, the surgeon imprinted the
following words on the voice activation device: "in",
"out", "left", "right", "up",
"down", "stop". The use of each command activated
the robotic arm to move the visual field in the direction described
by the command. The command "stop" de-activated the
robot resulting in a stable motionless field of view. Complex
laparoscopic tasks were again used during activation and de-activation
using voice commands.
Solo-Surgery: The 24 patients who underwent solo-surgery using robotic arm enhancement and minimally invasive approach all experienced successful completion of their operative procedures. There were no incidents of technical mishap in any of the procedures. The cholecystectomy procedures had an average operating time of 54 minutes compared to 61 minutes for other laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. The solo-surgery laparoscopic herniorrhaphy procedures had an operative time of 76 minutes compared to 84 minutes for non-solo surgeon laparoscopic herniorrhaphy procedures. The solo-surgery laparoscopic nissen fundoplication procedures had an average operating time of 112 minutes compared to an operating time of 160 minutes for comparable non-solo surgery operative procedures. The number of times the laparoscope required cleaning per 60-minute interval for cases involving solo-surgery and the robotic arm were 1.4 compared to 9.1 per 60-minute interval for comparable cases when the robotic arm was not used.
Complex Laparoscopic Procedures Using Cumulative Sophisticated Technologies: Of the 140 patients undergoing complex minimally invasive surgery utilizing a combination of robotic arm enhancement, the Harmonic Scalpel, the Head-Mounted Display, 3-D technology, and the ergonomic sitting position all were successfully completed utilizing the minimally invasive approach. There were no technical mishaps either related or unrelated to the technologies. Operating times were 155 minutes for gastric procedures, 153 minutes for colectomy procedures, and 125 minutes for anterior spine procedures. Each being comparable to operative times for comparable procedures when not using the additive benefits of these technologies. The average number of times the laparoscope was removed to clean its tip per 60-minute interval during these procedures was 1.0 compared to 7.7 per 60-minute interval for comparable procedures when not using the robotic arm technology.
Instrument Tracking and Voice Activation: The use of the instrument tracking mechanism to move the visual operative field by a color-coded instrument shaft was entirely successful utilizing motions to the left, to the right, in an upward direction, or a downward direction. However, the ability of the instrument tracking mechanism to move the field inward and outward was less successful. Further, the use of complex skills with instrumentation all were successfully accomplished when the tracking was inactivated. However, if the surgeon required movement of the visual field during the performance of a complex skill utilizing this instrumentation, then instrument tracking was unable to accomplish movement of the visual field.
Voice activation of the robotic arm to accomplish
movement of the visual operative field of view was entirely successful.
Motions to the right and left, up and down, as well as in and
out, were all successfully accomplished with ease. However, two
voice commands were always necessary; the command to start the
motion of the robotic arm and the command to "stop".
Further, the use of voice activation as a mechanism to move the
visual field in small increments when necessary - especially during
performance of laparoscopic complex skills, provided a solution
to movement of the visual field during the performance of skills
with the surgeon's instruments.
The use of the robotic arm to enhance minimally invasive operative procedures is identified and delineated in these studies in a variety of ways. Use of robotics to enhance the opportunity for a surgeon to perform solo-surgery without increasing the length of the operative procedures is delineated in Phase I of our study using laparoscopic cholecystectomy, laparoscopic hernia repair, and laparoscopic nissen fundoplication. Further, there were no technical mishaps and no technical complications either related or unrelated. This data diminishes cost and resource utilization by allowing either a surgeon-first assistant or a physician's assistant to not be utilized, thus allowing these medical personnel to be free to perform other healthcare interventions for other patients. It should be noted that no additional equipment was required to perform solo-surgery, thus the resource "trade-off" is the robotic arm in exchange for versatile medical personnel.
In circumstances in which laparoscopic nissen fundoplication and cholecystectomy were performed utilizing the solo-surgeon methodology, the procedures usually involve four ports (cholecystectomy) or five ports (nissen fundoplication). In these circumstances, there are often three personnel participating in the operative procedure. These include the surgeon, the first assistant and the camera holder. As a result, these latter two procedures may actually be modified by the solo-surgeon concept in order to exchange two medical personnel for a modified preoperative setup and robotic arm enhancement.
The solo-surgeon experiences have raised two important issues to the surgeon's consciousness. The first is that the use of the robotic arm diminishes the number of occasions per 60-minute interval that the laparoscope must be removed and cleaned at the tip. Since each occasion of removal and defogging uses time and also defocuses the surgeon, then the reduction in these cleaning maneuvers should result in a shortening of the operative time as well as diminishing risk due to defocusing of the surgeon's attention during a procedure. Further, since the robotic arm holds the position of the scope and the surgeon's optical field of view motionless and perfectly stationary, it allows for a much more stable and concentrated field of view for the surgeon to work. This phenomenon would seem to eventually translate into shortened operating time, increased concentration, decreased fatigue, and a diminution in risk of operative error.
The use of the robotic arm to enhance the efficiency and safety of complex minimally invasive procedures along with the synergistic benefits of other sophisticated technologies clearly is practical and imminently possible. In our series, the addition of multiple complex technologies did not lengthen the operative procedures and did not result in technical mishaps. Further, the reduction of medical personnel from three individuals to two personnel invariably occurred diminishing cost and human resource utilization. The robotic arm itself maintained a stable and motionless operative field for the surgeon throughout the cases and minimized the number of scope cleaning events. Both of these factors increased the concentration and focus of the surgeon providing continuity to the procedure without interruption. The use of the HMD in all circumstances allowed the surgeon to maintain a normal hand-eye axis allowing the work to be in front of the surgeon with his/her visual field exactly in the same plane as the laparoscopic procedure being performed. This benefit diminished fatigue, accommodated a non-paradoxical approach to the procedural tasks and eliminated the risks and inefficiencies associated with paradoxical motion (either related to a disparity in the location of the visual monitor or a disparity in the location of the relationship between the surgeon and his work7).
A further benefit perceived by the surgeon when using the HMD is the binocular vision which occurs because of the dual liquid crystal displays in the HMD. The left-sided display provides a visual field for the left eye and the right-sided display provides a visual field for the right eye. This binocular vision gives the surgeon a perception of depth and allows the eyes to fix on a very distant focal point to reduce eye fatigue. When coupled with 3-D technology, the HMD brings the surgeon binocular vision and depth. As a result, a "normal" three-dimensional field is perceived as opposed to an "exaggerated" three-dimensional field as perceived when the active 3-D glasses are used along with the 3-D active monitor. It might also be noted that the cost of the HMD in exchange for the active 3-D glasses and the 3-D monitor provides a major savings as well as technical safety and efficiency.
Three-dimensional technology itself adds depth to the visual operative field diminishing the risk of technical error inherent when working in a two-dimensional field. Further, the surgeon is not required to spend time and excess motions developing tactile clues to accommodate for the lack of depth in the two-dimensional field. This phenomenon can be translated into shorter operating times.
The Harmonic Scalpel (LCS) adds a subsequent degree of increased efficiency and diminished risk to the aforementioned technologies during complex minimally invasive surgical procedures. The LCS is a highly versatile instrument which cuts, coagulates, retracts, grasps, and bluntly dissects8. Therefore, its versatility diminishes cost in three separate ways: it eliminates the need for a variety of other instruments; it diminishes the number of instrument exchanges performed during a complex procedure, and it uses ultrasonic energy to cut and coagulate rather than using monopolar cautery. The use of the LCS eliminates the need for endoscopic scissors, endoscopic multiple clip applier, monopolar cautery, cautery line, and grounding pad. Elimination of these items reduced direct costs. The reduction in instrument exchanges maintains the surgeon's focus on the procedure and diminishes the waste of time and loss of concentration which occurs to the operating team during instrument exchanges. Lastly, the elimination of the risk of monopolar cautery when using the LCS may be translated to decreased cost due to decreased risk.
The use of a foot pedal to control the robotic arm and the subsequent operative field of view laparoscopically in complex minimally invasive surgical procedures presents a rather unique experience. At one extreme, many complex procedures (subtotal colectomies, gastric resections, trauma cases) require movement of the surgeon from one portion of the torso to another. The necessity of surgeon mobility detracts from the effectiveness and efficiency of the robotic foot pedal. On the other hand, many long complex minimally invasive procedures are benefited from placing the surgeon in the ergonomically beneficial sitting position which diminishes the effective use of the foot pedal. Further, most surgeons have other foot pedals as part of their procedure including either the Harmonic Scalpel foot pedal or the cautery foot pedal. The potential for increased complexity involving the robotic foot pedal tends to diminish efficiency and effectiveness. Therefore, we have attempted to utilize computerized instrument tracking and voice activation as alternative methods to direct the surgical field of view by way of the robotic arm. These experiences have delineated that the use of a blue color activated tracking system on the shaft of an instrument accomplishes efficient movement of the field of view to left and right as well as up and down. However, a number of movements are not successfully accomplished by instrument tracking. First, the "in" and "out" positions require a command other than instrument tracking. Secondly, an additional command is required to de-activate instrument tracking in order for the surgeon to utilize his instrument for a technical task while simultaneously holding the field of view steady. In addition, once the instrument tracking system has been de-activated and the surgeon is using his instruments for a technical task, the requirement for a small or moderate alteration in the visual field to accommodate the surgeon cannot be accomplished by instrument tracking because the instruments are being used for the surgical task. Therefore, an additional command is necessary in this latter circumstance. The addition of a prototype voice activation system allows the surgeon to move the field of view inward and outward. It also provides the opportunity to deactivate and reactivate the instrument tracking system. Finally, the voice activation and voice command may be used to accomplish fine movements while performing a delicate surgical task with the instruments. We believe this combination of control devices will further improve efficiency and versatility of the robotic arm to enhance minimally invasive surgical procedures.
These data delineate that each of the technologies
described improve safety, diminish resource utilization, improve
efficiency and versatility for the surgeon, and are clearly usable
synergistically together to maximize the benefits for the patient.
The authors strongly believe that further investigations to study
the details of each of these technologies and their respective
benefits are urgent and necessary.

[ht::head {Wiki Text}]
<%nochildlist%>
The ramadda.org site has many
examples of the wiki facility.
There is always some repository entry associated with wiki text. This might
be a specific Wiki Entry,
we might be treating
the description of some arbitrary entry as wiki text
using the <wiki> tag,
or the wiki text might be coming from a Page Style.
Wiki Editor
In any of these cases RAMADDA provides a wiki text editor:
[ht::cimg images/wikiedit.png {Wiki Text Editor} {border=0 width=600}]
-
The buttons allow you to add basic wiki markup.
-
The Add property menu adds RAMADDA specific properties from the entry that is being displayed
(e.g., name, description, children entries, etc).
-
The Add entry id menu allows you to specify the entry to use in properties (see below).
-
The Add entry link menu adds wiki links to other entries.
Basic Markup
The RAMADDA Wiki facility generally follows the format
that Wikipedia follows. For example:
[wiki::text {
==Section Heading 1==
===Section Heading 2===
}]
A horizontal line:
[wiki::text {
----
}]
Lists:
[wiki::text {
* bullet 1
* bullet 2
** sub bullet 1
** sub bullet 2
* bullet 3
}]
You can escape your wiki text and include raw, unprocessed text with the <nowiki> tag:
[wiki::text {
Some wiki text
<nowiki>
This is text that does not get formatted
</nowiki>
more wiki text
}]
See the
Wikipedia page on Wiki Markup for more information on basic Wiki markup.
Note: RAMADDA does not support the Wikipedia HTML table format.
For tables its best just to use HTML table markup.
Linking to other entries
Normally in a wiki a link to another page is of the form:
[wiki::text {
[[Page name]]
}]
In RAMADDA you can use the name of another entry to create the link.
You can use the Add entry link menu to select an entry.
This produces wiki text of the form:
[wiki::text {
[[entry id|Label to show for link]]
}]
e.g.:
[wiki::text {
[[7ca13e52-8efb-4d17-863f-e17027dbcc22|Earthquake data]]
}]
You can also just specify an entry by name. Either an absolute path:
[wiki::text {
[[Top entry/Some other entry]]
}]
Or relative to the wiki entry:
[wiki::text {
[[Some entry]]
}]
If the entry with the given name does not exist then the link will take one to the
create entry form.
Wiki Properties
You can also import content from the current Wiki Page entry or any other entry with the import
syntax:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag property]]
e.g., if we wanted to show the information tabs for an entry we'd do:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag information]]
For example, if we want to import the information block with it open:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag information {open="true"}]]
This would give us:
[ht::cimg images/wikiinformation.png {} {border=0}]
Normally, all property tags refer to the current entry. However, you can specify another entry:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag information {entry="some other entry id or name or 'parent' or 'grandparent'"}]]
The entry value can be the ID of an entry, its name (or full path) or "parent" or "grandparent" to denote
the parent entry (or its parent) of the current entry.
The Add entry id menu in the editor toolbar allows you to select the entry to use. As a convenience this
adds both the ID of the entry as well as its name.
Some of the properties can result in an error message (e.g., image not found, entry not found, etc). You can specify a different message (or blank) with message attribute:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag someproperty {message="some message"}]]
For example, you can set up a wiki template that shows an image attachment
and a list of entries in a sub-folder called "Links". If you used the below wiki text then you would see displayed
"Could not find image"
and "Could not find entry" error messages.
[wiki::text {
{{image src="::*"}}
{{links entry="Links"}}
}]
If, however, you specify a blank message then nothing will be shown:
[wiki::text {
{{image src="::*" message=""}}
{{links entry="Links" message=""}}
}]
Note: you can specify a prefix and suffix attributes that are only used if the tag was successful. So for example you could specify a heading for the links:
[wiki::text {
{{links entry="Links" message="" prefix="Here are the links:
"}}
}]
This would only show when there is a Links sub-folder.

Find all entries with file suffix 'pdf' that have been created in the last 2 days:
{{tree search.suffix="pdf" search.createdate.relative="-2 days" entries="search"}}
Filtering Entries
You can filter what entries to use with entries.filter, e.g.:
entries.filter=file|folder|image|type:some type|geo|suffix:file suffixes
If you specify suffix:file suffixes then this will only match entries that have files with the given suffix. This
can be a comma separated list of suffixes, e.g.:
entries.filter="suffix:.ppt,.pptx,.pdf"
Or negate them with "!":
entries.filter=!file|!folder|!image|!type:some type|!geo
So, you could show all of the georeferenced entries in a map and all of the non-georeferenced entries in a list:
{{map message="" prefix="==Map=="}}
{{tree message="" prefix="==Non georeferenced entries==" entries.filter="!geo"}}
You can also:
- If first is defined then these entry ids are put at the front of the list.
- If last is defined then these entry ids are put at the end of the list.
- Exclude any entries in the exclude comma separated list of entry ids.
- Sort entries by name or date with sort
- If images is set to true then only entries that are image files are included
Virtual Groups
If you are using a search in a virtual entry then in the Entry IDs field you enter the search parameters one per line. Don't forget to end this with "search" as that invokes the search. e.g.:
search.text=text to search
search.type=entry type
search.bbox=north,west,south,east
search.createdate.relative=-1 day
search
- [wiki::tagdef tree]:
The [wiki::tagdef tree] tag is used to display the children entries of a folder.
It can take the form:
[wiki::text [wiki::tagdef tree {title="Links" showtoggle="false" open="true" }]]
The title attribute is used in place of "Children".
If showtoggle="false" then the show/hide toggle link is not shown.
- [wiki::tagdef grid]: Show the children in a grid. e.g., show
the grandchildren as a grid:
[wiki::text {{{grid entries="grandchildren"}}}]
- [wiki::tagdef recent {days="number of days to show"}]:
Show the most recent N days in a list organized by day.
- [wiki::tagdef imageplayer {width="image width"}]:
Show images in an image player, e.g.
[wiki::text {{{imageplayer}}}]
- [wiki::tagdef gallery {width="image width" columns="number of columns" showdescription="true"}]:
Show a 3 column gallery:
[wiki::text {{{gallery columns="3"}}}]
Show a vertical listing of the children entry images:
[wiki::text {{{gallery columns="1"}}}]
Set the image width and only show up to 5 images:
[wiki::text {{{gallery width="300" count="5"}}}]
- [wiki::tagdef tabs]: Show the children as tabs:
[wiki::text {{{tabs}}}]
Show only the 3 specified entries in tabs:
[wiki::text {{{tabs entries="0af4d166-5723-4775-88fc-b83b72ab47a4,
83539d5c-e9d9-408e-b0af-35f480000ae6,
49684d25-6af1-4188-a0ae-4d5302d22f2a" }}}]
Show only the children of type wikipage in tabs:
[wiki::text {{{tabs entries="type:wikipage"}}}]
Additional arguments:
- tag="some tag name" - The wiki tag to use to show the children. e.g., tag="simple" tag="html"
- includeicon="true|false" - if true, include the appropriate icon in the tab
- showlink="true|false" - show a link to the entry (default: true)
- linklabel="label" - if showlink is true, use label in place of the entry
name
- imagewidth="width" - width of images
- maximageheight="max height" - maximum height of images
- linkresource="true|false" - if true, link to the entry resource
- [wiki::tagdef accordian]: Show the children in an accordian:
[wiki::text {{{accordian}}}]
Uses the same arguments as tabs.
- [wiki::tagdef slideshow]: Show the children in a slideshow:
[wiki::text {{{slideshow}}}]
Uses the same arguments as tabs, plus:
- autoplay="true|false" - if true, start the slideshow (default: false)
- speed="secs" - number of seconds to pause on each entry in slideshow
- border="pixs" - border size in pixels
- bordercolor="color" - border color (name or hexadecimal value)
- width="width" - width of the display
- height="height" - height of the display
- [wiki::tagdef links {separator="separator text to use"
style="inline css style for the link"
class="css class for the link"
tagopen="html to prepend to the link - default is li"
tagclose="close html"
linkresource="true|false if true link to the entry's file or URL; If false link to the entry"}]: Layout links to the entries.
This produces a set of links to the entries.
A bulleted list:
[wiki::text {

{{links}}

}]
A bulleted list with the links to the entry's file:
[wiki::text {

{{links linkresource="true"}}

}]
If you wanted to make a vertical list do:
[wiki::text {
{{links tagopen="
" tagclose="
"}}
}]
You can create a header with wiki text like:
[wiki::text {

{{links separator=" | " tagopen=""}}

}]
- [wiki::tagdef search {
type="entry type"
search.showform="true|false"
search.showheader="true|false"}]
The "search" tag performs an entry type specific search and embed it into the wiki. This is the same as the top-level type specific search. You can use any of the "search." attributes defined above, e.g., search.text.
The default is to not show the form.
- [wiki::tagdef apply]
The apply tag allows you to apply some tag (e.g., links, map) to a set of entries in turn. You can then layout
the results in a variety of ways (e.g., table, tabs);
The apply tag is of the form:
[wiki::text {
{{apply
apply.entry="the entry to find the children of"
apply.tag="some tag to apply to the entries"
apply.layout="table, accordian or tabs"
apply.columns="number of columns in table"
apply.header="text to go before can contain macros ${name} ${url}"
apply.footer="text to go after"
apply.border="border width - defaults to 0"
apply.bordercolor="border color"
apply.includeicon="true|false"
...
<arguments for the apply tag>
}}
}]
All of the arguments, including the entry argument are the same as described above but have the prefix "apply.". This way you can
mix the arguments that control the apply function with the arguments that you are using for each entry.
Say you have the following entries:
parent
entry1
sub-entry1
sub-entry2
entry2
sub-entry3
sub-entry4
If you used the apply tag:
[wiki::text {
{{apply
apply.entry="parent"
apply.layout="tabs"
apply.tag="links"
linkresource="true"
}}
}]
This applies the tag "links" to each main entry. It puts each result in a tab.
This tag would make a 2 column table of maps with links to the entries show in the header.
[wiki::text {
{{apply
apply.layout="table"
apply.columns="2"
apply.tag="map"
apply.border="1"
apply.header="${url}"
<any map arguments*gt;
}}
}]
Hiding and showing content
The <block> tag allows you to easily create a toggle block and/or show or hide content
based on the user's device.
To show a simple toggle block just do:
[xml {
any content here
}]
You can specify the toggle label title with:
[xml {
any content here
}]
You can specify whether the block is open or closed:
[xml {
any content here
}]
You can specify whether to show the content or not:
[xml {
this will only show for mobile users
this will only show for non-mobile users
}]
You can also use the block tag to define a variable or macro that is used later.
[xml {
any content here
}]
This will not show the content in place. Rather you can reference and insert the content later with:
[xml {
\${var_name}
}]
Importing any page
You can also import any of the views of an entry, e.g., the map view,
the OPeNDAP view, the calendar view, etc., with the
[wiki::tag import] tag:
[wiki::tagdef import {output=""}]
So, if you wanted to show the calendar view of an entry you would do:
[wiki::text [wiki::tag import {output="calendar.calendar"}]]
To find the correct output identifier just navigate to the page you
want to include and look at the url for the output=... url argument
and use that.

Mission Bit is dedicated to inspiring and empowering the next generation of tech innovators. We build professional opportunity pathways for high school youth across the San Francisco Bay Area by making computer science education more accessible to those traditionally underrepresented in tech.
There are over 100,000 high school students from low-income communities with no access to computer science courses across the nine Bay Area counties (San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Solano, Sonoma, and Napa).
Our initial goal is to continue to expand our existing model to expose more students to computer science education and ensure more underrepresented youth have access to free coding courses. Our interactive courses provide positive relationships between students and their instructors, volunteers in the classroom, and peers; bringing like-minded individuals together to form long-lasting meaningful connections. We are on a mission to recreate the face of tech and ensure our students have the necessary skills to thrive in this local economy and be part of the competition.

Welcome to the COG-Explorer!
This app allows you to visually inspect individual Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs) like
scenes from the Landsat-8 archive on Amazon S3.
Either copy the URL to the COG or to the index.html
of the Landsat 8 scene you want to
investigate in the "Custom URL" field and hit "Load URL or sample", or alternatively, show
one of the preselected samples using the button. Note, while optimizing
the data access by utilizing the COG features to only retrieve necessary parts of the data this
app downloads the actual raster values, UInt16 for Landsat 8, which uses quite some download bandwidth.
Additionally the data is download in its original projection and re-projected on the fly.
The selected COG is displayed on the map, which you can zoom and pan as you like. It is visualized as natural color composite with some default processing steps applied. Using the button you can adjust the visualization by selecting the bands to use and processing steps to apply.
For the band selection, either define red, green, and blue channels individually or use one of the predefined scenarios. As image processing steps currently sigmoidal contrast enhancement and gamma can be applied on all or individual channels.
This app uses the geotiff.js library to read the actual raster values like UInt16 from the band files (or the overviews, depending on the maps zoomlevel). Taking advantage of the optimized structure of COGs, only the parts of the file that are actually required are requested, drastically reducing the overall amount of data transmitted from the archive.
Please keep in mind that at the moment this app is a proof-of-concept demonstration with some room for improvement. Nevertheless we're looking forward to hear your feedback. Also let us know if you want to help in any way.
If you want to know more about COGs please refer to their introduction page.

A Statement
object represents a primitive statement
in which a single method is applied to a target and
a set of arguments - as in "a.setFoo(b)"
.
Note that where this example uses names
to denote the target and its argument, a statement
object does not require a name space and is constructed with
the values themselves.
The statement object associates the named method
with its environment as a simple set of values:
the target and an array of argument values.
| Constructor Summary | |
|---|---|
Statement(Object target,
String methodName,
Object[] arguments)
Creates a new Statement object with a target ,
methodName and arguments as per the parameters. |
| Method Summary | |

execute()
The execute method finds a method whose name is the same as the methodName property, and invokes the method on the target. |
Object[] |
getArguments()
Returns the arguments of this statement. |

Stats can exist on a character or an item, and they may potentially be aggregated in different ways. The DestinyStatAggregationType enum value indicates the way that this stat is being aggregated.
True if the stat is computed rather than being delivered as a raw value on items.
For instance, the Light stat in Destiny 1 was a computed stat.
The unique identifier for this entity. Guaranteed to be unique for the type of entity, but not globally.
When entities refer to each other in Destiny content, it is this hash that they are referring to.
The index of the entity as it was found in the investment tables.
If this is true, then there is an entity with this identifier/type combination, but BNet is not yet allowed to show it. Sorry!
The category of the stat, according to the game.
This represents a stat that's applied to a character or an item (such as a weapon, piece of armor, or a vehicle).
An example of a stat might be Attack Power on a weapon.
Stats go through a complex set of transformations before they end up being shown to the user as a number or a progress bar, and those transformations are fundamentally intertwined with the concept of a "Stat Group" ( DestinyStatGroupDefinition). Items have both Stats and a reference to a Stat Group, and it is the Stat Group that takes the raw stat information and gives it both rendering metadata (such as whether to show it as a number or a progress bar) and the final transformation data (interpolation tables to turn the raw investment stat into a display stat). Please see DestinyStatGroupDefinition for more information on that transformational process.
Stats are segregated from Stat Groups because different items and types of items can refer to the same stat, but have different "scales" for the stat while still having the same underlying value. For example, both a Shotgun and an Auto Rifle may have a "raw" impact stat of 50, but the Auto Rifle's Stat Group will scale that 50 down so that, when it is displayed, it is a smaller value relative to the shotgun. (this is a totally made up example, don't assume shotguns have naturally higher impact than auto rifles because of this)
A final caveat is that some stats, even after this "final" transformation, go through yet another set of transformations directly in the game as a result of dynamic, stateful scripts that get run. BNet has no access to these scripts, nor any way to know which scripts get executed. As a result, the stats for an item that you see in-game - particularly for stats that are often impacted by Perks, like Magazine Size - can change dramatically from what we return on Bungie.Net. This is a known issue with no fix coming down the pipeline. Take these stats with a grain of salt.
Stats actually go through four transformations, for those interested:
1) "Sandbox" stat, the "most raw" form. These are pretty much useless without transformations applied, and thus are not currently returned in the API. If you really want these, we can provide them. Maybe someone could do something cool with it?
2) "Investment" stat (the stat's value after DestinyStatDefinition's interpolation tables and aggregation logic is applied to the "Sandbox" stat value)
3) "Display" stat (the stat's base UI-visible value after DestinyStatGroupDefinition's interpolation tables are applied to the Investment Stat value. For most stats, this is what is displayed.)
4) Underlying in-game stat (the stat's actual value according to the game, after the game runs dynamic scripts based on the game and character's state. This is the final transformation that BNet does not have access to. For most stats, this is not actually displayed to the user, with the exception of Magazine Size which is then piped back to the UI for display in-game, but not to BNet.)


It means that for its development the native programming language of the device, Objective C or Swift for iOS, Java for Android and .Net for Windows Phone. Is a hundred percent model dependent on the platform and the Apps are not portable, you have to develop one per platform. — Some native application examples would be Whatsapp or Facebook.
They are applications developed using HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, deployed within a native container like Phonegap / Cordova which provides access to the capabilities of the device in a completely neutral way with respect to the operating system. It is a neutral model with respect to the platform and with maximum portability.
These are applications developed using tools such as Xamarin or Genexus (between many others), where the development is carried out using specific techniques and languages of the tool and then the App is generated in the language of the target platform to be compiled with the native tools.
We not only work with the best technology but with the best creatives We have assembled a team that feeds with the ideas and is motivated with the results.
The projects are accompanied by a Project Manager responsible for not technically fail nothing, and delivery times are met.
After more than 100 projects our experience is enormous, and we bring a broad vision to both technical level as business to projects.

Monday the last day to enter Ontario Liberal leadership race
by The Canadian PressToday is the last full day for anyone hoping to lead the Ontario Liberal party to enter the race.
The entry deadline for would-be candidates is Monday at 5 p.m.
The party faces a major uphill battle as it tries to rebuild after losing official status in last year’s provincial election.
Political observers say the new leader will need a combination of organizational and political savvy to help the party revive its fortunes.
Former cabinet ministers, Michael Coteau, Steven Del Duca and Mitzie Hunter are running to replace Kathleen Wynne, as are candidates Kate Graham and Alvin Tedjo.

This is jordie-lang, your last stop shop for the best programming language. Ever.
jordie-lang cares about giving full context to the user, but why bother writing documentation when your code is the documentation!
People talk a lot about self documenting code, here at jordie-lang we don't give you a choice!
Source on Github
jordie-lang uses lowercase letters for its keywords, and at least one space of seperation for each keyword. Other than that, you can have any extra whitespace you want to make it look nicer. Both tabs and spaces are accepted in jordie-lang.
The following is an example of the Fibonacci sequence running in jordie-lang.

Pattern Variables
To take this to the next level, you might want to ask "Who are the sons of Thomas and Norma?". In this case, you are passing Thomas and Norma into Pyke, and you'd like Pyke to pass something back out to you as part of the answer (in addition to the thumbs up).
Pattern variables serve as output parameters. They start with a $:
family.son_of($son, Thomas, Norma)
You can use whatever name you like after the $. Pyke will answer with a thumbs up binding $son to Bruce. If you don't like that answer, you can reject that answer and ask Pyke for another answer ("nope, try again!"). Each time Pyke finds another son for Thomas and Norma, it answers with another thumbs up and $son bound to a different value.
If you reject the last son of Thomas and Norma (or if Thomas and Norma have no sons in the first place), Pyke will answer with a thumbs down.
We say that Pyke binds Bruce to the pattern variable $son when it comes back with its first thumbs up. When we tell Pyke "nope, try again!", Pyke must first unbind $son before it can go on and bind it to the next value. The "nope" part does the unbinding, and the "try again" part does the binding again to a new value.
So at any point in time, a pattern variable is either bound to a value or unbound. If we follow a particular pattern variable through time, we might see that it is alternately bound and unbound many times as Pyke tries to find a suitable answer to your question. Specifically, when Pyke comes back with the final thumbs down, $son is unbound.
Anonymous Pattern Variables
Suppose we want to know who Norma's sons are? In this case we don't care about the father. We use anonymous variables as "don't care" placeholders.
An anonymous variable is any pattern variable who's name starts with an underscore (_). The rest of the name doesn't matter and just serves as documentation (and so $_ is all that's strictly needed).
So "Who are Norma's sons?" looks like:
family.son_of($son, $_father, Norma)
We're giving Norma as input to Pyke, and asking for the $son as output and telling Pyke that we don't care about the $_father.
Anonymous variables are never bound to values. (So you could say that they are always unbound).
Pattern Variable Identity
Now this is very important, so pay attention! The same pattern variable name means the same pattern variable. Thus, if you say $son twice, it's the same pattern variable. And, a pattern variable can only be bound to one value (at a time), so you mean the same data value must appear in both places.
Note
This does not apply to anonymous pattern variables. Since they are never bound to a value, each use of the same anonymous variable can match different data values.
So if you wanted to see all of the sons with the same name as their fathers, you would ask:
family.son_of($father, $father, $_mother)
Note
The Pyke family_relations example never uses the same name for both father and son because that would cause confusion about which of them was the father to both of their sons and daughters.
In these cases, it modifies the name of the son to make it unique.
Thus, this question would always fail within the family_relations example...
And so here is the complete explanation of how pattern variables are matched to a data value.
First, the pattern variable is checked to see if it is already bound to a value.
If it is bound to a value, then this bound value has to match the data for the match to succeed.
If it is unbound, then the pattern variable is bound to the data value as a by-product of doing the match, and the match always succeeds.
And so pattern variables only "match any value" when they are unbound. And in matching that value, they become bound to it as a by-product of doing the match. Once bound to a value, a pattern variable will only match that value (much like a literal pattern).

public class BigArrays extends java.lang.Object
A big array is an array-of-arrays representation of an array. The
length of a big array is bounded by SEGMENT_SIZE
*
Integer.MAX_VALUE
= 134217728 * (231 −
1) rather than Integer.MAX_VALUE
. The type of a big array is that of
an array-of-arrays, so a big array of integers is of type
int[][]
. Note that SEGMENT_SIZE
has been chosen so that
a single segment is smaller than 231 bytes independently of the
data type. It might be enlarged in the future.
If a
is a big array, a[0]
, a[1]
,
… are called the segments of the big array. All segments,
except possibly for the last one, are of length SEGMENT_SIZE
. Given
an index i
into a big array, there is an associated
segment and an associated
displacement into that segment. Access to single members happens by
means of accessors defined in the type-specific versions (see, e.g.,
IntBigArrays.get(int[][], long)
and
IntBigArrays.set(int[][], long, int)
), but you can also use the
methods segment(long)
/displacement(long)
to access entries
manually.
You can scan a big array using the following idiomatic form:
for(int s = 0; s < a.length; s++) { final int[] t = a[s]; final int l = t.length; for(int d = 0; d < l; d++) { do something with t[d] } }or using the (simpler and usually faster) reversed version:
for(int s = a.length; s-- != 0;) { final int[] t = a[s]; for(int d = t.length; d-- != 0;) { do something with t[d] } }
Inside the inner loop, the original index in a
can be retrieved
using index(segment, displacement)
. You can also
use an additional long to keep track of the index.
Note that caching is essential in making these loops essentially as fast as those scanning standard arrays (as iterations of the outer loop happen very rarely). Using loops of this kind is extremely faster than using a standard loop and accessors.
In some situations, you might want to iterate over a part of a big array having an offset and a length. In this case, the idiomatic loops are as follows:
for(int s = segment(offset); s < segment(offset + length + SEGMENT_MASK); s++) { final int[] t = a[s]; final int l = (int)Math.min(t.length, offset + length - start(s)); for(int d = (int)Math.max(0, offset - start(s)); d < l; d++) { do something with t[d] } }or, in a reversed form,
for(int s = segment(offset + length + SEGMENT_MASK); s-- != segment(offset);) { final int[] t = a[s]; final int b = (int)Math.max(0, offset - start(s)); for(int d = (int)Math.min(t.length, offset + length - start(s)); d-- != b ;) { do something with t[d] } }
A literal big array can be easily created by using the suitable type-specific
wrap()
method (e.g., IntBigArrays.wrap(int[])
) around a
literal standard array. Alternatively, for very small arrays you can just
declare a literal array-of-array (e.g., new int[][] { { 1, 2 } }
). Be warned, however, that this can lead to creating illegal big arrays if
for some reason (e.g., stress testing) SEGMENT_SIZE
is set to a
value smaller than the inner array length.
If you find the kind of “bare hands” approach to big arrays not
enough object-oriented, please use big lists based on big arrays (.e.g,
IntBigArrayBigList
). Big arrays follow the Java tradition of
considering arrays as a “legal alien”—something in-between
an object and a primitive type. This approach lacks the consistency of a full
object-oriented approach, but provides some significant performance gains.
In addition to commodity methods, this class contains BigSwapper
-based implementations of
quicksort and
of a stable, in-place
mergesort.
These generic sorting methods can be used to sort any kind of list, but they
find their natural usage, for instance, in sorting big arrays in parallel.

2018 Geocaching
So 2018 was pretty much the year I started geocaching and it’s been a good year - however, we’ll see if 2019 can beat 2018!
Avro Round Walk
The first day of my Christmas holiday saw me undertake the Avro Round geocache route around the old Avro factory and airfield in Poynton. It was a bit of a muddy walk in fairness as the image below shows!
It was a nice route, especially as it was aviation themed (and builders of the two most recognisable British bombers, the Vulcan and Lancaster). I’d seen the caches on the website a while back and decided that I was going to do the route at somepoint. And then with two weeks off work, I decided that I would go out and attempt this during my first day of the holiday.
I planned an early start to the route so that I could complete the route in light - good job I got there at about 10:00, because it took me longer than I was expecting and I ended up finishing as it was getting dark (partly because the weather wasn’t great towards the end).
The route itself was right around the outside of the old Avro airfield and factory. It seems that the airfield is now becoming a housing estate which is a bit of shame but houses need to be built. There is still a museum on the site that is open on Fridays and Weekends to the public, which unfortunately I wasn’t able to visit (as I did the walk on a Thursday) but I’ll look at coming back, especially as I could see a Vulcan peeking over the hedges whilst out walking.
The caches were good - a mixture of sizes and hides along with a tree climb, which I’ve not done for a while (and I was lucky to get this time in fairness and I thought I was going to have to leave it). The route took about 4 hours in total what with looking for the caches and the like. It would have been a quicker route if not! There were a few caches that were difficult to find, so I took my time of these and in some cases, this paid off. In others, it didn’t and I had to continue on my way.
Final Cache Walk of 2018
Coming up to the end of the year, I was at the 195 geocache mark. I couldn’t finish the year under 200 caches, especially as I was so close. In fact, I set myself the target of taking my total count to 201, as that would mean that I’ve found 200 caches in a single year!
I decided that I would look fairly locally for me, and start early so that if I ran in to any DNF’s, that I would able to sort myself out some extra ones elsewhere loccally to get myself up to the target numbers!
So New Years day started off early - it was still fairly dark when I pulled up to the car park in the morning!
The first couple of caches were found relatively quickly before I came across my first DNF. I spent a good 20 minutes looking for one but couldn’t find it and thought I’d best move on. On the route, there was also an Augmented Reality cache. Groundspeak are experimenting with the idea of AR caches and will be testing this until March 2019.
This particular AR cache was located near Abney Hall in Abney Park and I stopped to get a photo.
I completed the AR section of the cache and went onwards to collect the final location and the continued on my walk. Unfortunately, whilst most caches were well maintained, I came across one that was a bit worse for wear and couldn’t actually sign the log sheet.
I completed my loop, heading through Cheadle, netting myself a Church Micro multi cache at the local church, getting the answers together for an Earth Cache at the church as well, before heading back along the main road to head in to the back of the park and collect and additional couple of caches. I managed to pass by this chap on my way back to the car. Apparently a well known local who used to drive the coaches between Manchester and Stockport.
I managed to net myself 13 caches in total, taking me over my target for the year and getting myself five different caches types (equally my trip to Edinburgh in the year, where I also got 5 different cache types). It made for a varied and interesting cache route. I still have a few caches to get in Cheadle, so I’ll be making another trip in the future.
Lookback
So I’ve done a couple of geocaching trips over the year that netted me a fair few caches. I did the TALBOL series around Bollington and then managed to find some abroad when I visited Switzerland and France. The TALBOL series netted me almost 25% of my geocaches for the year, so that was a worthwhile hike (it was also a nice, if not long, walk).
Final total for the year was 207 caches found which was good - I ticked over the 200 mark on the last day of the year. My 2018 geocaching stats can be seen here.
I’ve currently got no big plan for geocaching walks in 2019, but I’m sure that can quickly change!

Nibblin' on sponge cake, Watchin' the sun bake
All of those tourists covered with oil.
Strummin' my six string on my front porch swing.
Smell those shrimp They're beginnin' to boil.
Wasted away again in Margaritaville,
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
But I know it's nobody's fault.
Don't know the reason, Stayed here all season
With nothing to show but this brand new tattoo.
But it's a real beauty, A Mexican cutie,
how it got here I haven't a clue.
Wasted away again in Margaritaville,
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
Now I think, - hell it could be my fault.
I blew out my flip flop, Stepped on a pop top;
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home.
But there's booze in the blender, And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.
Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.

[Wired]New MPEG standard halves video bandwidth with no quality loss
摘要：MPEG组织最近宣布，其发布了一个新的视频压缩格式草案（H.265）。在这个格式框架内，可以做到用H.264一半的带宽传送同样质量的图像。在对未来的预期中，爱立信视觉技术研究所的Per Fröjdh认为，在2015年，H.265会负担90%的网络流量。
The Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) has produced a draft standard for a new video-compression format that delivers the same video quality in half the bandwidth of the current H.264 standard.
The draft, High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC also known as H.265 and MPEG-H Part 2), announced today, agreed on at an MPEG meeting in Stockholm in July attended by 450 delegates from the telecoms, computer, TV and consumer electronics industries convened to approve and issue the new standard.
The chair of the Swedish delegation and organiser of the meeting, Per Fröjdh, manager for visual technology at Ericsson Research, said the outcome would have “an enormous impact on the industry.”
“There’s a lot of industry interest in this because it means you can halve the bit rate and still achieve the same visual quality, or double the number of television channels with the same bandwidth,” he said.
“The availability of a new compression format to reduce bandwidth, particularly in mobile networks where spectrum is expensive [and] paves the way for service providers to launch more video services with the currently available spectrum.”
He added: “Video accounts for the vast majority of all data sent over networks, and that proportion is increasing: by 2015, it is predicted to account for 90 percent of all network traffic.”
Fröjdh said he believed that the HEVC format could be implemented in commercial products as early as in 2013. “It will take time before it’s launched for a TV service, but adoption is much quicker in the mobile area, and we’ll probably see the first services for mobile use cases next yea.”
In June MPEGLA, an organisation that claims to be “the world’s leading packager of patent pools for standards and other technology platforms,” issued a call to holders of patents essential to the new standard to come forward.
“By starting the joint license facilitation process now, the market can enjoy the earliest opportunity to plan for deployment of this promising new technology,” said MPEG LA president and CEO Larry Horn. “MPEG LA is pleased to assist in facilitating a convenient, independently administered, one-stop patent licensing alternative to assist users with implementation of their technology choices and invites all patent holders to participate.”
Meanwhile Fröjdh’s Visual Technology team at Ericsson is working with MPEG on a new 3D video compression format that would enable the development of 3D video systems that did not require 3D glasses. Fröjdh said the technology could be standardised by 2014.
“Future 3D technology will have more advanced displays, which will enable different views,” he says. “The simpler versions of this technology will still just offer the two views we have today – left and right – without the need for glasses. But in the future, there will be many views next to each other, so you will simply move your head to the left or the right to give you a stereo impression of an object.”

Investigate how users think and react. Make decisions based on facts, not hunches.
