Displaying and improving run-length encoded images on a BTOS system

<p>The goal of this project was decode and display a run-length
encoded image, and to apply error concealment
techniques to the decoded image. The software was written
in the C programming language, a language learned during the
course of this project. This software was written to read a
run-length encoded ASCII file and translate it to a bit-mapped
ASCII file. The software can display the bit-mapped
image on a video screen and print it on a laser printer.</p>
<p>
The software also implements four error concealment
techniques and displays the improved image on the video
screen and on a laser printer.</p>
<p>
This software was written for the U.S. Coast Guard's
Standard Workstation, running the Unisys Corporation's
Burroughs Technology Operating System (BTOS), using the BTOS
C compiler. Most of the code should be transportable to
other operating systems, but the display functions make use
of system library functions, which may not be available on
other operating systems. / Master of Science
