H.264/AVC, the result of the collaboration between the ISO/IEC
Moving Picture Experts Group and the ITU-T Video Coding
Experts Group, is the latest standard for video coding. The goals
of this standardization effort were enhanced compression efficiency,
network friendly video representation for interactive
(video telephony) and non-interactive applications (broadcast,
streaming, storage, video on demand). H.264/AVC provides
gains in compression efficiency of up to 50％ over a wide range
of bit rates and video resolutions compared to previous standards.
Compared to previous standards, the decoder complexity
is about four times that of MPEG-2 and two times that of
MPEG-4 Visual Simple Profile. This paper provides an overview
of the new tools, features and complexity of H.264/AVC.
