Sentences with MEGABYTE (5)
For example, a digital color image that fills the screen of a standard mega-pel workstation (Sun or Next) will require one megabyte of storage for an eight-bit image or three megabytes of storage for a true color or twenty-four-bit image.
Lossless compression algorithms (that is, computational procedures in which no data is lost in the process of compressing [and decompressing] an image--the exact bit-representation is maintained) might bring storage down to a third of a megabyte per image, but not much further than that.
With these full screen mega-pel images that constitute a third of a megabyte, one gets 1,000-3,000 full-screen images on a one-gigabyte disk; a standard CD-ROM represents approximately 60 percent of that.
Thus, questions of disk access, remote display, and current telephone connection speed make transmission of megabyte-size images impractical.
This means estimating whether it will cost you more per Megabyte to transfer the information or to have it faxed to you by a friendly librarian.
Quotes with MEGABYTE (2)
