MPEG-4 Working Group

The ViDe MPEG-4 Working Group was established in June 2000 and is chaired by Ms. Mairead Martin (University of Tennessee). This Working Group believes MPEG-4 has the potential to greatly enhance online learning, collaboration and resource sharing. While MPEG-4 technology and application development is in its infancy, we are seeking opportunities to engage industry in partnerships that will result in the creation of model MPEG-4 applications. Early MPEG-4 deployments in the higher educational domain, especially when realized through private sector participation, will facilitate technology transfer and replication beyond that domain, and thus will accelerate the widespread adoption of the standard.

The goals of the ViDe MPEG-4 Working Group are:

    º Identify industry partners interested in collaborative MPEG-4 application development;
    º Ascertain the "state-of-the-art" of MPEG-4 technology development;
    º Establish a base for and promote the adoption of MPEG-4 technologies in higher education; and
    º Promote awareness of MPEG-4 in the academic community and beyond.
