Prof. K. R. Rao received the Ph. D. degree in electrical engineering from The University of New Mexico, Albuquerque in 1966. Since 1966, he has been with the University of Texas at Arlington where he is currently a professor of electrical engineering. He, along with two other researchers, introduced the Discrete Cosine Transform in 1975 which has since become very popular in digital signal processing. He is the co-author of the books ‘Orthogonal Transforms for Digital Signal Processing’ (Springer-Verlag, 1975), ‘Fast Transforms: Analyses and Applications’ (Academic Press, 1982), ‘Discrete Cosine Transform-Algorithms, Advantages, Applications’ (Academic Press, 1990). He has edited a benchmark volume, ‘Discrete Transforms and Their Applications’ (Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1985). He has coedited a benchmark volume, ‘Teleconferencing’ (Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1985). He is co-author of the books, ‘Techniques and standards for Image/Video/Audio Coding’ (Prentice Hall, 1996), ‘Packet video communications over ATM networks'(Prentice Hall, 2000) and ‘Multimedia communication Systems’ (Prentice Hall, 2002). He is coeditor of the handbooks, ‘The transform and data compression handbook’ (CRC Press, 2001), and ‘Digital video image quality and perceptual coding’ (Marcel Dekker, 2004). He is co-author of the book, ‘Fast Fourier Transform and Its Applications’ (Springer, 2009). Some of his books have been translated into Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Russian. He has conducted workshops/tutorials on video/audio coding/standards worldwide. He has published extensively in refereed journals and has been a consultant to industry, research institutes and academia. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
Dr. Do Nyeon Kim received the B.E. degree from Kyungpook National University, Daegu, Korea, in 1985 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees, both in electrical engineering, both from Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea, in 1988 and 2004, respectively. From 1989 to 1994, he was a senior researcher at ETRI, Daejeon, Korea. He was a lecturer at Yonsei University in 2004. From 2005, he is a visiting professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, the University of Texas at Arlington. He is a recipient of IT scholarship for 2005 and 2006 for post-doctoral program from the Institute for Information Technology Advancement and the Ministry of Information and Communication, Republic of Korea. He is co-author of the book, ‘Fast Fourier Transform and Its Applications’ (Springer, 2010).
Prof. J.J. Hwang received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering from the Chonbuk National University in 1983, 1986, and 1992, respectively. He is currently full-professor at the Kunsan National University, Korea, and adjunct professor of RMIT University, Sydney, Australia. His research interests are digital image/video coding & processing, information theory, object segmentation and tracking, and 2D/3D visual quality assessment and evaluation. He is the co-author of
Techniques and standards for image, video and audio coding
(Prentice Hall, 1996) and
Fast Fourier transform – Algorithms and applications (Springer, 2010).
