ISO/IEC 15444-9:2023
Information technology - JPEG 2000 image coding system - Part 9: Interactivity tools, APIs and protocols
This Document defines, in an extensible manner, syntaxes and methods for the remote interrogation and optional modification of JPEG 2000 codestreams and files in accordance with their definition in Rec. ITU-T T.800 | ISO/IEC 15444-1 and other members of the Rec. ITU-T T.8xx | ISO/IEC 15444-x family of Recommendations | Standards.In this document, the defined syntaxes and methods are referred to as the JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol, "JPIP", and interactive applications using JPIP are referred to as "JPIP systems."JPIP specifies a protocol consisting of a structured series of interactions between a client and a server by means of which image file metadata, structure and partial or whole image codestreams can be exchanged in a manner that avoids or minimises the communication of information not required by client. This document includes definitions of the semantics and values to be exchanged, and suggests how these can be passed using a variety of existing network transports.With JPIP, the following tasks can be accomplished in varying, compatible ways:– the exchange of capabilities;– the negotiation of capabilities to use in a session;– the request and transfer of the following elements from a variety of containers, such as JPEG 2000 files, JPEG 2000 codestreams and other container files:• selective data segments;• selective and defined structures;• parts of an image or its related metadata.

With JPIP, the following tasks can be accomplished in varying, compatible ways:
– the exchange of capabilities;
– the negotiation of capabilities to use in a session;
– the request and transfer of the following elements from a variety of containers, such as JPEG 2000 files, JPEG 2000 codestreams and other container files:
• selective data segments;
• selective and defined structures;
• parts of an image or its related metadata.
ISO/IEC 15444-9:2005 defines, in an extensible manner, syntaxes and methods for the remote interrogation and optional modification of JPEG 2000 codestreams and files in accordance with their definition in the following parts of ISO/IEC 15444: ISO/IEC 15444-1 and its definition of a JPEG 2000 codestream and JP2 file format; andthe JPEG 2000 family of file formats as defined in further parts of ISO/IEC 15444. In ISO/IEC 15444-9:2005, the defined syntaxes and methods are referred to as the JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol, "JPIP", and interactive applications using JPIP are referred to as "JPIP systems".
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
