[comp.graphics] Want DVI

simkin@ginosko.samsung.com (Rick Simkin) (03/13/89)

I've just gotten onto the newsnet, so forgive this posting (but send me
information!) if this was the hot topic 3 weeks ago:

I'm trying to learn about an image compression/decompression process called
DVI.  This process is supposed to compress images by a factor of about 120,
and decompress them very quickly.

I'd appreciate outlines or details of this algorithm, reliable measures of
compression ratios and decompression speed, availability in software or
hardware, and references on where I might find more information.  Thanks!
