MPEG-4 Whitepaper describes AVC, MPEG-7, MPEG-21, & AAC
By downloading the latest Whitepaper on MPEG-4 you can learn more about AVC, MPEG-7, MPEG-21, HE-AAC and other parts of the MPEG-4 standard. There are 22 parts of the MPEG-4 standard and we have mainly seen the implementation of popular parts such as Part 2 (MPEG-4) Part 10 (AVC/H.264), Part 3 (AAC) but there are still many more to come in the future. MPEG-4 is a standard that continues to get better and the new Whitepaper on MPEG-4 gives more detail about that.
MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 also will work hand-in-hand with MPEG-4 for providing Metadata for content in the case of MPEG-7 and for providing Digital Rights Management in the case of MPEG-21. These two items still need to be developed more. What's good about the whitepaper is that it's current and up-to-date with references to items such QuickTime 7, Playstation Portables (PSP), iPods, and other mobile devices. You can use the MPEG-4 Whitepaper to get a better understanding of different technologies and how they relate to MPEG-4. You can also use it to get a glimpse into the future of where the industry is going in regards to streaming, mobile devices, and other technologies.
