ISO/IEC JTC 1/IGBT N029 |
24 December 1998
This is the report of the Imaging and Graphics Business Team (IGBT) to the JTC 1 Plenary meeting in January 1999. The team began operations in July 1998 following it's authorization at the last JTC 1 Plenary. Two public meetings were held, one in Orlando Florida USA on 26 July 1998 and the second in Seoul, Republic of Korea on 13 November 1998. About thirty people attended the Orlando meeting In Seoul, there was a meeting with key business leaders in the morning followed by a presentation to an audience of 360 people in the afternoon.
The team's web site will remain available indefinitely and is located at:
Organization: The leader of the IGBT was advised by a Steering Committee composed of managers and technologists with a strong interest in graphics and imaging [Attachment 3]. Team activities were divided into two focus areas: Business and Government and Technology. The Technology Focus was further subdivided into four Working Groups:
The number of participants in each area (based on e-mail reflector sign ups) is given in Table 1. Based on those who took the time to fill in the registration information on the www site, 57 people from 13 countries signed up. Completing this information was not a requirement for participation since you could separately join each activity by adding yourself to its e-mail reflector. The participants in the Archiving and Distribution Working Group are not listed in this report since the group was only recently formed. This information will be provided in the verbal report at Plenary.

Publicity and recruitment: The team's activities were difficult to promote. In spite of a JTC 1 press release and over 200 direct contacts to media representatives, the team's activities got little space in the press. The team was featured in articles in the ACM SIGGRAPH's publication Computer Graphics and in a few other specialized publications. Most participants were recruited directly by team members or heard about the team through some standards-related organization. The large number of other on-going ad-hoc and consortia activities in the area of graphics and imaging contributed to the difficulty of attracting dedicated participants.
Methodology: The IGBT did not attempt to conduct any surveys, produce any taxonomies, collect and analyze any requirements, or model any business processes. Such activities are an ongoing part of the business practices of the many firms and other organizations that contribute to the worldwide market for computer graphics and imaging technology, and the IGBT did not believe it necessary to attempt to duplicate this work. Instead, the team identified standards opportunities by seeking key areas with a substantial body of commercial practice that were at a point in the cycle of technology that International Standardization might be beneficial. Synthetic Environments and Archiving/Distribution were two such areas. The team also identified two other key areas - Interaction and Fundamental Objects - where it felt there was a substantial body of diverse commercial practice that could benefit from the standardization process to coalesce needless diversity and improve interoperability.
Recommendations: The recommendations of the IGBT to JTC 1 are:
Recognizing that the fast paced evolution of information and communications technologies has created opportunities for standards-based solutions to meet the requirements of new and emerging markets, JTC 1 created the Imaging and Graphics Business Team (IGBT). The purpose of the business team was to identify opportunities for creating new International Standards by working with:
Business Teams are a strategic planning activity of JTC 1, designed to reach outside the community of technologists within JTC 1 who develop International Standards and involve both leaders in business and government who are the users of standards as well as the trade associations, consortia and other organisations who develop standards. The area of information and communications technology addressed by the IGBT included all aspects standard formats and interfaces used for interaction with and presentation of, information, including but not limited to:
The leader of the IGBT was advised by a Steering Committee composed of managers and technologists with a strong interest in graphics and imaging [Attachment 3]. The 12 members of this committee represented 4 countries as well as business, academia and government and were involved in all important decisions concerning how the IGBT operated. The Steering Committee developed and approved a set of written procedures under which the team operated.
The team's activities were divided into two focus areas:
The Technology Focus was further subdivided into four Working Groups:
Participation in the IGBT was open to anyone and many of the participants had not previously participate in any recognized standards. Almost all work was accomplished electronically by the use of e-mail reflectors and the document register. The two meetings were mostly used to report to the public about the team's activities and to recruit new members.
One focus of the business team was working with business and government experts to determine future opportunities for computer graphics and imaging technology. This was important because an effective International Standard requires the combination of market opportunity with appropriate technology.
The Business and Government focus planned to work with information and communications technology companies to create opportunities for standards-based solutions to meet the requirements of new and emerging markets.
The plan was to:
Some of the areas identified by IGBT management as likely areas for exploitation were:
Four working groups were formed within the Technology Focus:
The following sub-clauses describe each of these in more detail.
A synthetic environment is a representation of a natural or artificial environment, whose components are located in reference to a well-defined spatial origin and coordinate system. For representation of the natural environment, generally, this origin is either the sun or earth, however any celestial body (or even imaginary body) can be used. An important special case is that of geo-spatial locations referenced to the earth (including its surface, oceans, atmosphere and near space.) A synthetic environment includes terrain and terrain features (both natural and man-made); models of objects such as avatars, and certain localized features of the environment with complexity in structure or behavior (e.g., vehicles, buildings, smoke plumes, and tornados); the ocean (both on and below the surface); the ocean bottom including features (both natural and man-made) on the ocean floor; the atmosphere including environmental phenomena; and near space. In addition, a synthetic environment includes the attributes of the objects in the environment, as well as the relationships amongst the types of objects. The representation includes constraints necessary to insure correct automatically generated behaviors. These include topological and rule-based constraints.
The purpose of the Synthetic Environments Working Group was to address all aspects of support for the creation, authoring and interchange of synthetic environments. The scope of this Working Group included, but was not necessarily limited to, support for the creation of applications in these areas:
The title "Synthetic Environments" was chosen to be neutral to:
and to avoid the over-used term "Virtual" (for example, "Virtual Environments").
Modeling includes: 1. the descriptions of the objects within such environments, for example their graphical and/or aural manifestations; and 2. selected aspects of the behavior of the objects within the environment, including interactions amongst the simulated entities, as well as interactions between the environment and such entities, where the entities respond to events in the synthetic environment or influence the synthetic environment. The mechanism(s) to be used for behavior description are to be determined, and will likely include at least scripting and programming language based representations.
Specific aspects that the WG addressed or considered included:
Today, synthetic environments are created through a costly and time-consuming authoring process resulting in a platform-dependent database that supports a single application. One goal of the standards to be proposed by this working group is to enable re-use and sharing of such data between authoring systems, thereby eliminating the need to re-create each database from scratch and also enabling the creation of a market for lower-cost, shared synthetic environments and their components.
The goals and deliverables adopted by the group were:
The criteria for success were:
The leader of the Synthetic Environments Working Group is Karen Williams of the National Imagery and Mapping Agency in the United States ( kwilliam@MSIS.dmso.mil )
Current advances in presentation technology have brought a wealth of nicely visualized information into homes and onto desktops. This achievement was the result of the well-orchestrated application of new techniques for data representation, integrated display processing, data compression and networking. Much of this orchestration was achieved through open, high level object oriented programming technology. While we have seen the first generation of multimedia platforms reach homes and offices, we have also observed the lack of the effective interaction tools required for end users to adequately deal with the flood of information from the new media. Because of this, growth in the market has slowed, creating lower than expected returns for the content creation industry.
The relative success of presentation technology owes much to the emergence of a commonly accepted architecture that has helped blend and focus innovation. This architecture is partly due to the pioneering work of standardization initiatives from both industry and academia. The purpose of the Interaction Working Group is to answer this question: "Should we develop an International Standard for Interaction?"
Classical Computer Graphics modeled input and output devices as two largely independent streams of information. If instead we treat interaction as a new, hybrid type of device that is neither purely input and output, but rather has aspects of both with control exercised over the relation between the two, we have a new paradigm that might lead to the new International Standards. It is the functionality that determines controlled relationships in interaction that needs to be thoroughly understood.
This is the area where standardization is deemed necessary. For additional details you may consult the Document IGBT N010, "Towards an IT Standard for Interaction" by Dr. Paul ten Hagen.
The purpose of the Interaction Working Group was to address all aspects of interactivity. The scope of this Working Group included, but was not necessarily limited to, support for the creation of applications in these areas:
Specific applications of interaction that were addressed or considered include:
Each of the above features can be realized by interaction that relates input and output.
The reasons why an International Standard for Interaction is desirable include:
The goals and deliverables for this Working Group were:
The leader of the Interaction Working Group is Drs. Paul ten Hagen of CWI in Amsterdam, The Netherlands ( Paul.ten.Hagen@cwi.nl ).
The purpose of the Fundamental Objects Working Group was to address the need for an International Standard(s) for the elemental or fundamental objects that underlie all forms of information presentation and interaction. Except in such very basic areas as Character Sets, today each standards committee (both inside of JTC 1 and outside) whose work touches on some aspect of presentation or interaction tends to invent their own application area-specific objects. This is because there are no International Standards for such objects except as part of a larger and often "monolithic" standard that is both too rich in its entirety for the intended application and not sufficiently customizable to meet special application requirements.
The Fundamental Objects Working Group was tasked with determining the feasibility of defining a set of semantic and syntactic models that could be used alone or in small sets with well-defined inter-relationships, to meet the needs of application-specific standards. Examples of such objects are geometric objects (points, lines, linear curves, surfaces, and solid objects - spheres, comes etc.), presentation attributes (color, size (for example, width of linear features, volume, start time), texture, smoothness, etc.), metadata objects (grouping, structure, application-specific information), input (location, path, selection), media objects (still image, moving images, sounds), communication objects (events, messages, etc) and behavior modeling (pre-planned behavior (animation) and interactions among objects within a scene based on physics or other considerations.)
The scope of this Working Group included support for the creation of applications in all areas. The work would lead to the specification of semantics and abstract syntax but not (necessarily) coded representations. This would allow the objects to be adopted by applications ranging from low bit rate ones (where very compact representations are required) to ones on higher speed networks (where clear text codings would place an emphasis on human understanding and editability of the coded representation.)
Specific aspects to be addressed or considered include:
The goals and deliverables of this WG were:
The leader of the Fundamental Objects Working Group was Dr. George S. Carson of GSC Associates in the United States ( carson@siggraph.org ) .
The purpose of the Archiving and Distribution Working Group was to address the need for an International Standard(s) or for new or modified profiles of existing standards to better meet the needs of Information Archiving and Distribution. This WG dealt with the unique information presentation requirements of electronic libraries, archives, and of public access to information, including official records.
Specific aspects to be addressed or considered include:
The goals and deliverables of the WG were:
The Business Team organized and obtained sponsorship for an International Symposium on Standards for Imaging and Graphics. The primary sponsor of the workshop will be the Imaging and Graphics Business Team of ISO/IEC JTC 1. JTC 1 which is responsible for all International Standardization in the area of Information Technology. Funding and meeting facilities for the workshop will be provided by the Defense Systems Agency (DISA) of the US Department of Defense. At this point in cooperation sponsorship has been obtained from IFIP WG 5.10 and from Eurographics. This Symposium will be a "Eurographics Workshop." (Note that we are using the word "Symposium" rather than "Workshop" due to the special requirements that ISO places on an event called a Workshop.)
The workshop will be patterned after the two successful workshops that launched the last round of formal International Standards activities in computer graphics: the 1974 workshop at NBS (now NIST) in the US organized by Jim Foley and Ira Cotton on the Potential of Graphics Standards and the 1976 workshop sponsored by IFIP WG5.2 and convened by Richard Guedj in Seillac, France to consider the Methodology of Graphics Standards. The SIGGRAPH Graphics Standards Planning Committee (GSPC) was formed at the first of these workshops. Among those attending the second workshop were William Newman, Tom Sancha, Martin Newell, Jose Encarnaçao, Jim Foley, Bert Herzog, Alan Kay and Nick Negroponte. Taken together, these two workshops resulted in the formation of the first ISO committee to develop computer graphics standards and in the work that led first to the GKS International Standard and later to the PHIGS International Standard.
The symposium will be held in the Washington DC area in the United States, most likely the Airlie Conference Center in Warrenton, Virginia on May 3, 4 and 5 1999.
The Program Committee is:
One purpose of the Symposium is to make recommendations to the International Standards community for future activities in all aspects of the functional specifications, formats and interfaces used for or directly supporting interaction with and presentation of, information, including but not limited to:
These recommendations are expected to include
Outputs: There are two outputs from the Symposium. The first is the published proceedings including the position papers of all attendees and transcription of the most important portions of the discussions. Eurographics plans to publish the proceedings in their Workshop Series published by Springer Verlag. The proceedings will also be available over the WWW and as a formal document within the ISO and IEC International Standards committees. The second output (which will be included in the Proceedings but will also be distributed by itself) is a set of recommendations to the international community regarding future standardization activities.
Participation: There will be an open Call for Papers. In addition the Program Committee will actively solicit contributions from key individuals. Potential invitees will be asked to submit a short (2-5 page) position paper. The Program Committee will review the submissions and invite participants based upon criteria that include the quality of the position papers and the need to balance of opposing points of view.
Costs: Participants will be expected to pay their own travel expenses. DISA is the financial sponsor of the workshop and will support 100% of the costs. DISA will furnish meeting facilities, A/V equipment, a continental breakfast and lunch each day, and a social event one evening. There is a possibility of some limited travel support for some participants. DISA will also provide organizational support before, during and after the meeting , including editorial support for the preparation of the Proceedings. In accordance with Eurographics policy we expect to charge a participation fee to individuals who are not members of Eurographics that equals the cost of a one year membership in that organization.
Sponsors: The following organizations have agreed to be sponsors:
We expect that the cosponsors will publicize the workshop among their membership. We expect to coordinate publication of the Proceedings with Eurographics with all from publication going to Eurographics. Sponsors will benefit from the exposure provided by being listed on the workshop announcements. A chief benefit to of sponsoring organizations will be the opportunity that members will have to an opportunity to participate in the workshop and therefore influence future work on International Standards.
Schedule:
The team was never able to secure a dedicated leader for the Business Focus. An individual signed up to do this job early, but was forced to resign following a change in jobs. A replacement was never found. Despite this, the following topics were discussed in the Business Focus:
The Synthetic Environments Working Group was very active and discussed and resolved many issues. Among the topics of discussion were:
The results of the discussions were that the group would like to see SEDRIS (or a derivative) standardized. However it is key that the result of the effort have vitality and wide industry backing beyond the early adopters. A key concern is that the ISO process must add value, enlist more active contributors, and spread recognition, including the possibility that SEDRIS is embraced by significant communities beyond those who already assist in its development.
The decision to form the Interaction Working Group was made at the Orlando meeting. At that meeting, Drs. Paul ten Hagen. of CWI in the Netherlands gave a presentation on advanced Interaction and the need for standards. Discussions within the Interaction Working Group began based on a white paper (N010) expanding on the ideas in that presentation. Much time has been spent getting everyone up to speed on the conceptual frameworks defined in various reference models. Discussions have centered on these points:
The work of the group is not finished and is proceeding slowly but steadily due to its conceptual nature. The group feels that discussions should continue in some other forum after the conclusion of the IGBT's activities.
Like Interaction, this group is addressing an area where there is no existing specification that can be transposed into an International Standard. Instead, work of a fundamental and basic nature must be done. The discussion have centered around these points:
The work of the group is not finished and is proceeding slowly but steadily due to its conceptual nature. The group feels that discussions should continue in some other forum after the conclusion of the IGBT's activities.
The group was formed in December and is just starting its discussions. Hopefully there will be more to report to JTC 1 during the presentation at Plenary in late January.
