Basic Details of (Ogg) Vorbis Audio Format
Vorbis (Ogg Vorbis in the corresponding container format) is a free audio format for lossy audio data reduction. The format was developed by the Xiph.Org Foundation as a patent-free alternative to the widely used MP3 format. The adaptability of the format was designed to allow for decades of use. Vorbis can be encoded with both variable and constant bitrates between (average) 32 and 448 kbit/s. … [Read more...]
What is Ogg Container File Format (Music)
The development of the Ogg container format is led by the Xiph.Org Foundation, which is also responsible for development of FLAC, Vorbis and many other codecs. Ogg is actually only the container format for the Vorbis-encoded content. Ogg container file format can contain audio, video, and text data at the same time. Ogg was designed to provide a free and unrestricted alternative to proprietary … [Read more...]
What are Neodymium Magnets?
Neodymium magnets use an alloy of neodymium, iron and boron with the composition Nd2Fe14B, from which the strongest permanent magnets are currently produced. It is one of the rare earth magnet materials and was developed in 1982. Rare earth magnets are a group of permanent magnets consisting mainly of ferrous metals (iron, cobalt, nickel) and rare earth metals (neodymium, samarium, praseodymium, … [Read more...]
What is Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a chip that adds basic security functions to a computer or similar device. These functions can be used, for example, for license and data protection. In some respects, the chip behaves like a built-in smart card, but with the important difference that it is not tied to a specific user, but to the local computer. In addition to being used in PCs and notebooks, … [Read more...]
What is OLAP Cube/Data Cube?
An OLAP cube (Online Analytical Processing) or data cube, also known as a cube operator, is a term commonly used in data warehouse theory to represent data logically. The data is arranged as elements of a multidimensional cube. The dimensions of the cube describe the data and allow easy access. Data can be selected across one or more axes of the cube. The term OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) … [Read more...]
What is Data Virtualization?
The term data virtualization refers to certain approaches in the field of data management as a subset of data integration. These make it possible to query and manipulate data from source systems without the need for the querying system to be aware of its detailed technical information – such as the structure of the data source or the physical storage location. Data virtualization can be seen as … [Read more...]
Lossy Compression vs Lossless Compression
In our earlier article, we have described the basic details about data compression. Also, we have pointed out that lossless compression is when the compressed data can be used to extract exactly the original data. This is necessary, for example, when compressing executable program files. Examples are: Images: RAW, BMP, PNG General: ZIP Audio: WAV, FLAC In the case of lossy … [Read more...]
What is Data Compression
Data compression is a process in which the amount of digital data is condensed or reduced. This reduces the amount of storage space required and reduces the data transfer time. In telecommunications, the compression of messages from a source by a sender is called source encoding. Basically, data compression attempts to remove redundant information. To do this, the data is converted into a … [Read more...]
