Bytemobile Partners with AirZip to Deliver Advanced Image Compression in its Wireless Optimization Platform.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 23, 2002 Combined Solution Enhances Mobile Data Experience for Enterprise and Consumer End Users Bytemobile, Inc., a leading provider of data optimization optimization Field of applied mathematics whose principles and methods are used to solve quantitative problems in disciplines including physics, biology, engineering, and economics. and service-enabling infrastructure to mobile network operators, today announced it has signed a license agreement with AirZip, Inc., a provider of market-leading image compression Noun 1. image compression - the compression of graphics for storage or transmission compression - encoding information while reducing the bandwidth or bits required solutions that enable the speedy delivery of image-intensive applications over wireless network connections. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Dr. Constantine Polychronopoulos, a Bytemobile co-founder and the company's chief scientist, lack of compression is a factor in slow data transfer rates in the wireless world, particularly when images are being transmitted. Photographs, maps, diagrams and CAD drawings can exact an enormous toll on transmission speeds and bandwidth requirements Bandwidth requirements (communications) The channel bandwidths needed to transmit various types of signals, using various processing schemes. Every signal observed in practice can be expressed as a sum (discrete or over a frequency continuum) of sinusoidal . "AirZip offers superb image compression software that reduces the bandwidth required to transmit images, enabling delivery up to 400 percent faster, while simultaneously decreasing the processing and memory requirements associated with compression," said Polychronopoulos. "The solution compliments perfectly our Macara platform, enabling speedy delivery of web images over wireless networks." The AirZip software converts images to the AZV AZV Auslandszahlungsverkehr (German. international money transfer) AZV Arbeitszeitverkürzung AZV Azygos Vein format. The resulting image can be appended to virtually any application and forwarded via the Bytemobile optimization service node to a designated recipient. "Slow image downloads have been a barrier to mass adoption of wireless data," said Lee Bauman, chief executive officer of AirZip. "Now, mobile operators adopting Bytemobile's Macara platform with AirZip's solution will be able to offer their corporate and consumer users significantly more punch for quick wireless downloads of images, greatly enriching the user experience."
