Guest Editor's Introduction: Standards and the Emergence of Digital Multimedia Systems

Excerpt:


In 1990, several committees completed much of the technical work on Important standards for digital multimedia. These will have far-reaching effects as a multibillion-dollar industry unfolds, expanding the scope of computers and communications systems further into the worlds of publishing and television.

This introduction provides perspective and a glossary, preparing readers for articles on JPEG, MPEG, px64 and other standards.
