1.3 COOPERATION AND COMPETITION
SC29 and ITU-T SG8, SG16 have been jointly developed veral standards such as ISO/IEC 11544 (JBIG), 10918-1 to 10918-4 (JPEG), 14495-1, 2 (JPEG-LS) and 13818-1, 13818-2 (MPEG-2 Systems and Video) as common text standards. In addition, ISO/IEC 13522-1, 3, 5 (MHEG) are technically aligned texts to ITU-T Rec. T171, 173, 172 respectively. Especially, amendment 7 to H.222.0 | ISO/IEC
13818-1(MPEG-2 systems) will be in an approval pha by ITU-T as a common text this year and the decision will be made next year. WG 11 and Web3D (former VRML) consortium have been cooperating on identify synergies and examine the way to utilize them. MPEG-4 system u a part of VRML nodes and will include all VRML nodes into BIFS (Binary format for scene).
2. PERIOD REVIEW
SC 29/WG 11 completed MPEG-4 Version 1 FDIS (Part 1: Systems, Part 2: Visual, Part 3: Audio, Part 6: DMIF) and submitted a t of standards for balloting while Conformance testing (Part 4) has reached to CD and Reference software have reached to the FCD level. This completion provides the frozen specification to the world. Thus, companies and organizations, which are willing to develop ap
plication products, can start correct implementation of MPEG-4 application.
2.1 MARKET REQUIREMENTS
MPEG-4 provides object bad audio-visual reprentation for the Web applications. Major prospected application of MPEG-4 in the market is;
- Content bad storage and retrieval
- Digital television t-top box
- Infotainment
- Mobile Multimedia
- Streaming video on the Internet/Intranet
- Studio and television post-production
- Surveillance
- Virtual meeting
In March 1999, video camera using MPEG-4 Visual has already been announced to relea to the market. Several prototypes of mobile audio-visual terminal using MPEG-4 Version 1 can be en at mobile communication conferences.
2.2 ACHIEVEMENTS
Accomplishment of MPEG-4 Version 1 FDIS is the highlighted achievement in this period. Part 1-3 and Part6 were met in targeted dates whereas Part 5 was delayed for about three months for polishing up the software. ISO/IEC FDIS 14496-1 (MPEG-4 Systems) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 1: Systems
ISO/IEC FDIS 14496-2 (MPEG-4 Visual) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 2: Visual
ISO/IEC FDIS 14496-3 (MPEG-4 Audio) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 3: Audio
ISO/IEC CD 14496-4 (MPEG-4 Conformance testing) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 4: Conformance testing
ISO/IEC FCD 14496-5 (MPEG-4 Reference software) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 5: Reference software
ISO/IEC FDIS 14496-6 (MPEG-4 DMIF) Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 6: DMIF
2.3 RESOURCES
Adequate resources were available for all projects.
3. FOCUS FOR THIS PLANNING PERIOD
SC29 was assigned to deal with balloting for DAVIC PAS DIS and DTR submission in this period in addition to the originally planned project works. The SC 29 DAVIC PAS DIS and DTR ballots resolution group resolved disposition of comments and instructed the SC 29 Secretariat to submit the report to the DAVIC for acceptance, and also to SC 29 and the ISO/IEC ITTF. SC 29 Task Group will be established to maintain ISO/IEC 16500-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9 and ISO/IEC TR 16501.葡萄籽油的功效与作用

3.2 STRATEGIES:
WG 1 is defining a file format for JPEG 2000 in cooperation with DIG (Digital Imaging Group).
In WG 11, experts form Web3D and W3C consortium are joining to the standardization activity for MPEG-4 Systems and DMIF in addition to the formal liaisons with the consortiums. This makes progress of the work very effectively. We will continue to keep this joint-developing style as long as people from the outside consortium are able to join to the WG’s activities. We also ek ways to cooperate with SC 24 since Web3D and W3C are partners of SC 24.
3.2.1 RISKS
Two w orking group has enough resource (WG 1: 100, WG 11: 300 people), so that any risks to the projects listed above cannot be found. However, WG 12 has less than 10 active members so that accomplishment of Conformance Testing for ISO/IEC 13522-5 (MHEG-5) may be delayed.
3.2.2 OPPORTUNITIES
It is not expected to create a new project within the period (from 1999-03 to 1999-11) since a possible project such as MPEG-7 has already been submitted as "Multimedia content description interface" and obtained the project number 15938.
3.3 WORK PROGRAM PRIORITIES
Becau of the resource availability of WG 12, MHEG-8 (JTC 1.29.06.08, Coding of multimedia and hypermedia information – Part 8: XML notation for ISO/IEC 13522-5) has been put higher priority than MHEG-7 (JTC 1.29.06.07, Coding of multimedia and hypermedia information – Part 7: Interoperability and conformance testing for ISO/IEC 13522-5).
