MPEG-4: A Multimedia Standard for the Third Millennium, Part 2
@article{Battista2000MPEG4AM, title={MPEG-4: A Multimedia Standard for the Third Millennium, Part 2}, author={Stefano Battista and Franco Casalino and Claudio Lande}, journal={IEEE Multim.}, year={2000}, volume={7}, pages={76-84} }
PEG-4 defines a multimedia system for interoperable communication of complex scenes containing audio, video, synthetic audio, and graphics material. In part 1 of this two-part article (in the previous issue) we provided a comprehensive overview of the technical elements. Here in part 2 we describe an application scenario based on digital satellite television broadcasting, discuss the standard's envisaged evolution, and compare it to other activities in forums addressing multimedia…

The proposed system is targeting the intelligent extraction of semantic information from a/v and text related data taking into account the nature of useful queries that users may issue, and the context determined by user profiles.
Performance analysis of MPEG-4 decoder and encoder
- Computer ScienceInternational Symposium on VIPromCom Video/Image Processing and Multimedia Communications
- 2002
The paper first describes the MPEG-4 computational load and discusses related works, then the performance analysis is presented, showing that while the decoder program can be easily executed in real time, the encoder requires execution times in the order of seconds per frame which call for substantial optimisation to satisfy real-time constraints.
Robust Video Transmission With Distributed Source Coded Auxiliary Channel
- Computer ScienceIEEE Transactions on Image Processing
- 2009
A novel solution to the problem of robust, low-latency video transmission over lossy channels by proposing an auxiliary codec system that sends additional information alongside an MPEG or H.26x compressed video stream to correct for errors in decoded frames and mitigate drift.

During the last decade, the cost of storage and wide area communication services has decreased, while their capacity increased dramatically, which has made digital storage, annotation and access of multimedia information a mature and viable choice for content holding organizations and individuals.
Parallel implementations of the 3D fast wavelet transform on a Raspberry Pi 2 cluster
- Computer ScienceThe Journal of Supercomputing
- 2016
This work presents and evaluates three parallelization strategies of the 3D fast wavelet transform (3D-FWT) on a cluster of Raspberry Pi 2 SDCs and considers the execution of the POSIX Threads and MPI versions on a very high-performance but power-hungry 4-core Intel Xeon CPU E5606, obtaining that the Raspberry Pi 1 SDC can do the task with much lower total energy consumption.
