Submitted by Peter Murray on Mon, 2005-02-21 03:53.
The second conference on digital image archving by The Society for Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T) will be held in Washington DC on April 26-29. With tutorials on the 26th, the formal program runs for three days starting on the 27th with a format of a keynote speaker each morning followed by a single-track arrangement of technical papers or poster sessions through the day. There is a generous amount of time for making and reinforcing connections across a wide variety of disciplines; by way of example, the meeting is held with the cooperation of: AIC, ALCTS, CNI, DLF, DPC, ECPA, ISCC, MCN, OCLC, RLG, and SPIE.
JPEG2000-specific programs at IS&T
I should have also mentioned that, among a number of sessions that may refer to JPEG 2000, there will be at least two programs talking specifically about the standard: New File Formats in Archiving: JPEG2000, High Compressed PDF, JBIG2 with Real World Examples (Klaus Jung and Thomas Zellmann, LuraTech GmbH (Germany)) and An Evaluation of Motion JPEG 2000 for Video Archiving (Glenn Pearson and Michael Gill, The National Library of Medicine / NIH / HHS (USA)).
