Managing stored voice in the etherphone system
Douglas B. Terry,Dan Swinehart +1 more
TL;DR: The major technical contributions presented in this paper involve the use of simple databases to describe the results of editing operations such that existing voice passages need not be moved, copied, or decrypted, and provide a modified style of reference counting that allows the automatic reclamation of obsolete voice.
