8 Image Compression

DOI: 10.1201/9781003221142-8

8.1 Introduction and Overview

As we look to the future, the need to store and transmit images will only continue to increase faster than the available capability to process all the data. Even with the rapid growth in computer power and the increase in Internet bandwidth, the ability to process and transmit the desired amount of image data continues to be problematic. Additionally, advances in video technology and the corresponding growth in the multimedia market, including high-definition television, streaming video and remote learning, are creating a demand for new, better and faster image compression algorithms.
