Abstract
After the introduction of digital video technologies and the CD format in the mid eighties, a flurry of applications that involved digital audio/video and multimedia technologies started to emerge. The need for interoperability, high-quality picture accompanied by CD-quality audio at lower data rates, and for a common file format led to the institution of a new standardization group within the joint technical committee on information technology (JTC 1) sponsored by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). This group, the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), was established at the end of the eighties with the mandate to develop standards for coded representation of moving pictures, associated audio, and their combination [Chiariglione 95].
