N14991, White paper on RVC-CAL and RMC

The objective of this white paper is to provide an overview of the MPEG Reconfigurable Media Coding framework. Initially started with the intention of covering only MPEG video compression technology, it now includes also 3D Graphics compression standards. The framework is composed by normative elements and by non-normative tools. Normative is the standard library of functional units that can be connected into various decoder configurations building high level dataflow based functional specifications of decoders . Non-normative tools provide simulation, analysis and executable code synthesis capabilities for the generation of implementations running on different platforms of any RMC specification.
