Description

FP5 IST-2001-34096, 2KAN, “(JPEG)2K Advanced Networking” (2002-2004)

The JPEG 2000 Open Standard concept goes beyond image compression only. Parts 1 and 2 concern basic technical elements for image compression and file format, Part 3 provides a solution to extend Parts 1 and 2 to motion, Part 4 and 5 are technical complements while Part 6 addresses mixed raster images. A new set of 4 Parts has recently been initiated thanks to an intense European activity. The 2KAN project has addressed all 4 new Parts (Part 8 JPSEC – Security, Part 9 – interactivity JPIP, Part 10 Floating Point and Volumetric Imaging, Part 11 JPWL – Wireless) in terms of requirements, typical applications, user interface, protocols and signalling, use of metadata and required algorithms. Each part has been addressed by a common technical management workpackage and by a specific workpackage creating a reference software and appropriate tests and evaluation. It will also add major enhancements to the public JPEG website (www.jpeg.org), with the twin goals of encouraging a European dimension to the site, and allowing it to become self-financed through sponsorship and specific commercial services.
