Blum, C.C.Blum2022-03-082022-03-081990https://publica.fraunhofer.de/handle/publica/317526A new method for fast image communication and image presentation in a distributed environment is described in this paper. The basic idea is to use an image conversion server, a common image archive and a unified image interchange format for all applications linked together by a local area network (LAN). Moreover, image presentation can be accelerated by pre-calculating a few relevant image derivatives for each image to be stored in the image archive, whereby each derivative represents one class of image formats.enImage Archiveimage communicationImage ConversionImage Presentationimagingstandartization006conference paper
