Source coding is accomplished via the mapping of consecutive source symbols (blocks) into code blocks of fixed or variable length. The fundamental limits in source coding introduces a tradeoff between the rate of compression and the fidelity of the recovery. However, in practical communication systems many issues such as computational complexity, memory capacity, and memory access requirements ...

In this paper, an expert system is developed to be used as a decision support in selecting the best appropriate approach to solve interactive multi-objective decision making problems. The developed expert system guides the user to select the suitable solution approach based on different classification criteria which represent the main features of the available interactive approaches. key words:...
