I disagree. How about video compression. A major part of any digital HDTV
system has to be the compression scheme. Two of the reasons to do compression
are:
- To save on storage (computer side)
- To save on bandwidth (non computer side)
Actually I don't care what the group is called. However, digital communications
is not part of computer science. I also have doubts about microprocessor design
being only a CS area too.
