Progressive party
(gcide) | Progressive party \Progressive party\ (U. S. History)
The political party formed, chiefly out of the Republican
party, by the adherents of Theodore Roosevelt in the
presidential campaign of 1912. The name Progressive party was
chosen at the meeting held on Aug. 7, 1912, when the
candidates were nominated and the platform adopted. It was
also known as the Bull Moose Party. Among the chief
articles in the platform are those demanding direct
primaries, preferential primaries for presidential
nominations, direct election of United States senators,
women's suffrage, and recall of judicial decisions in certain
cases. In 1924 the label was also adopted by the party
supporting the presidential campaign of Robert M. La
Follette, and in 1948 it was also adopted by the party of
Henry Wallace. The party is no longer (1998) considered a
force in U. S. national politics.

progressive coding
(foldoc) | progressive coding
interlace
interlaced image
non-interlaced
(Or "interlacing") An
aspect of a graphics storage format or transmission
algorithm that treats bitmap image data non-sequentially
in such a way that later data adds progressively greater
resolution to an already full-size image. This contrasts
with sequential coding.
Progressive coding is useful when an image is being sent
across a slow communications channel, such as the Internet,
as the low-resolution image may be sufficient to allow the
user to decide not to wait for the rest of the file to be
received.
In an interlaced GIF89 image, the pixels in a row are
stored sequentially but the rows are stored in interlaced
order, e.g. 0, 8, 4, 12, 2, 6, 8, 10, 14, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11,
13, 15. Each vertical scan adds rows in the middle of the
gaps left by the previous one.
PNG interlaces both horizontally and vertically using the
"Adam7" method, a seven pass process named after Adam
M. Costello.
Interlacing is also supported by other formats. JPEG
supports a functionally similar concept known as {Progressive
JPEG}. [How does the algorithm differ?]
JBIG uses progressive coding.
See also progressive/sequential coding.
