<A NAME="Overview"><h2>Intel<EFBFBD> JPEG Library 1.51</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</A><P>The Intel<EFBFBD> JPEG Library (IJL) is a software library for application developers that provides high performance JPEG encoding and decoding of full color and grayscale still
|
|
|
|
|
|
images.</P>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The IJL was designed for use on Intel<EFBFBD> architecture platforms and has been tuned for speed and efficient memory usage. Additionally, the IJL was developed to take advantage of MMX<EFBFBD>,
|
|
|
|
|
|
Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE), and SSE-2 technology if
|
|
|
|
|
|
present.</P>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The IJL provides an easy-to-use programming interface without sacrificing low-level JPEG control to advanced developers. The IJL also includes a substantial amount of functionality that is not included in the ISO JPEG standard. This added functionality is typically necessary when working with JPEG images, and includes pre-processing and post-processing options like sampling and color space conversions.</P>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Additional information on this software as well as other libraries is
|
|
|
|
|
|
available at the <a href="http://developer.intel.com/software/products/perflib/">Intel Performance
|
|

Libraries web site</a>.<br>
