-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-4358 2010-03-13 01:30:09 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : CharLS Product : Fedora 11 Version : 1.0 Release : 0.1.b.fc11 URL : http://charls.codeplex.com/ Summary : An optimized implementation of the JPEG-LS standard Description : An optimized implementation of the JPEG-LS standard for loss less and near loss less image compression. JPEG-LS is a low-complexity standard that matches JPEG 2000 compression ratios. In terms of speed, CharLS outperforms open source and commercial JPEG LS implementations. JPEG-LS (ISO-14495-1/ITU-T.87) is a standard derived from the Hewlett Packard LOCO algorithm. JPEG LS has low complexity (meaning fast compression) and high compression ratios, similar to JPEG 2000. JPEG-LS is more similar to the old loss less JPEG than to JPEG 2000, but interestingly the two different techniques result in vastly different performance characteristics. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update is to add the new package CharLS to the updates-testing branches of f11, f12, f13. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #566729 - Review Request: CharLS - An optimized implementation of the JPEG-LS standard https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566729 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
