C and stf byte C into the receiving buffer (Spec. at 31, line8 9
21 to p. 33, line 13). Thus, the Figure 12 circuitry
eliminated four 00 bytes, i.e., bytes C -C , which is equal to
4 7
the number of bytes that represented adjusting data in the
received encoded data. In so doing, the circuitry also
changed the identity of the bytes which represent the four-
byte staffing start code, which was initially represented by
bytes C -C in the received encoded data stream but then by
6 9
bytes C , C , C , and C in the modified data stream, which is2 3 8 9
written into the receiving buffer 32 (Spec. at 33, lines 13-
16; p. 34, lines 12-14).
The result of eliminating four of the 00 bytes prior to
storage of the data in the receiving buffer is that the
variable length decoder 33 (Fig. 11(A)) is required to
eliminate only three 00 bytes, i.e., synchronizing byte C and
1
bytes C and C of the staffing start code (Spec. at 34, lines2 3
12-21). This permits the encoded image data to be processed
effectively (Spec. at 33, line 22 to p. 35, line 2), i.e.,
without causing a discontinuity in the displayed image.
