The JPEG 2000 Suite
Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
- Describes secure JPEG 2000 (JPSEC), interactivity protocols (JPIP), volumetric image data compression (JP3D) and image compression in wireless environments (JPWL), amongst others.
- Uses a structure which allows for easy cross-reference with the components of the standard.
- Sets out practical implementation examples and results.
- Examines strategies for future image compression techniques, including Advanced Image Coding and JPEG XR.
- Includes contributions from international specialists in industry and academia who have worked on the development of the JPEG 2000 standard.
- Additional material can be found at www.jpeg.org.
The JPEG 2000 Suite is an excellent introduction to the JPEG 2000 standard and is of great appeal to practising electronics engineers, researchers, and hardware and software developers using and developing image coding techniques. Graduate students taking courses on image compression, digital archiving, and data storage techniques will also find the book useful, as will graphic designers, artists, and decision makers in industries developing digital applications.
