- Description
- Digital Speech Standard (DSS) is a proprietary compressed digital audio file format defined by the International Voice Association, a co-operative venture by Olympus, Philips and Grundig. DSS was originally developed in 1994 by Grundig with the University of Nuremberg. In 1997, the digital speech standard was released, which was based on the previous codec. It is commonly used on digital dictation recorders. Modern phycoacoustical codecs that perform nearly as well at only slightly higher bitrates have led to this speech coding standard being less used in modern voice recording equipment.
- AsciiDoc is a lightweight markup language used for writing documentation, books, and articles in plain text. It uses simple, human-readable syntax that can be converted to formats like HTML, PDF, and EPUB. It is often used as an alternative to Markdown for technical documentation.
