7. Committed to Connecting the World International Telecommunication Union November 2011 7 Video coding Long history in standards development in: ITU-T since mid-1980s (H.261): Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) = Q6/16 ISO/IEC/JTC1 since early 1990s (MPEG-1): SC29/WG11 MPEG video coding ad hoc group Joint work 1994 1998+: H.262/MPEG-2 Video 2001 2009: JVT: Joint Video Team H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 (MPEG4-AVC ) 2010 … : JCT on video coding Beyond H.264/AVC (new generation of video compression technology with substantially higher compression capability) First outcomes expected 2012

8. Committed to Connecting the World International Telecommunication Union November 2011 Still image coding Long history in standards development since mid- 1980s: ITU-T: Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) = Q6/16 (started in CCITT SG VIII) ISO/IEC/JTC1: SC29/WG1 (started in ISO TC97 SC2 WG8) Joint work 1986: creation of JPEG, Joint (CCITT/ISO) Photographic Expert Group for cont. tone color image coding 1988: creation of JBIG Joint (CCITT/ISO) Bi-level Image Group for b/w image compression and coding Many Common or Twin texts: T.8x & T.8xx series JPEG, JPEG2000, JPEG-XR
