This directory contains applications either developed or enhanced
at Washington State University.  This activity is supported in part by the
National Science Foundation under grant USE-9250721.

All applications run succesfully under NS3.0.  I have not tried to run them
under 3.1 since I can not afford it.  Use at your own risk. If you find them
helpful or want source code, drop me a line at bamberg@eecs.wsu.edu.  If you 
use these applications, let me know so I can keep my funding agents happy.

You may need to grab gzip and gunzip from the folks at the FSF.  You can find
it on their ftp sight, prep.ai.mit.edu in the pub/gnu directory. Sorry for the 
inconvenience, but it is a real nice compressor (I get about 30% more 
compression than "compress").

IQ.tar.gz (compressed with gzip).  This is an interactive application for
	compressing images.  It is only an image compression simulation package
	as it never actually entropy codes the images.  It is intended as 
	an educational application only.  It allows the students to investigate
	the effects of various different combinations of finite and infinite
	level quantizers and linear predictors.

	This app is appropriate for a senior level course on image processing.
