            Abstract : 
In this paper, we propose a lossless data hiding based on smart boundary adjustment approach. More specifically, by preserving either the minimum or the maximum pixel values of the blocks, data bits can be effectively embedded into the blocks without any occurrence of overflow and underflow. Experiments confirm that perceived quality is good and the payload is large while our peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) is competitive to existing techniques.
