Abstract
The problem of real-time video compression is a difficult and important one, and has inspired a great deal of research activity. This body of knowledge has been, to a substantial degree, embodied into the MPEG and H.261/H263 motion video standards. However, some important questions remain unexplored. This book describes one possible alternative to these standards that has superior compression characteristics while requiring far less computational power for its full implementation.
