Signal transmission in communication systems is accomplished via digital techniques, where different types of data and signals such as voice, music, image, video, text, etc., if not already in the digital format, are first digitized and converted to sequences of 0's and 1's [ 6],[ 7].
Digital libraries built exclusively out of nascent electronic publications such as e-journals, e-books, e-reference works (Web-based training programs, computer-based training programs, etc)., digital scholarly works (monographs, etc. in the public domain) and digitized documents conforming to standard digital formats are proving to be an uphill and unfinished task.
Napster may be dying, but the digitized MP3 format in use by its music-swapping members is alive and well.
The records usually are digitized in electronic format and organized in a database [ 3].
The data sets comprise anonymized XML formatted digitized ECGs and descriptive variables from placebo and positive control arms of individual studies previously submitted on a proprietary basis to the US Food and Drug Administration by pharmaceutical sponsors.
This article draws on the authors' own experiences designing, planning and implementing workflow for two digital imaging projects, including using an SGML/XML metadata standard to provide access to digitized resources in all formats.
The EMG signals were amplified, digitized, and digitally filtered.
Immunostained sections were digitized in tagged image file format (.tiff) at 10× magnification (894 × 668 μm) using a Leica DC300 FX CCD camera (24-bit red-green-blue color depths, 1392 × 1040 pixels) attached to a Leica DM4000 B microscope.
The S/PDIF formatted audio signal is digitized and used to intensity-modulate white illumination LEDs.
