Description
Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>The present paper will present a survey on features of a number of non-specialized off-the-shelf JPEG2000 viewers, seen from the point of view of digital microscopy. Selected viewers were tested within a number of usage scenarios, including: i) open a conformance test JPEG2000 file; ii) open a large JPEG2000 file; iii) moving from one point to another; iv) changing resolution/magnification. For each scenario, data recorded included: successful or unsuccessful operation; time needed for conclusion; occasional problems.</p> <p>Preliminary results demonstrate that JPEG2000 conformance as stated by many viewers is only limited to some of the possibilities of the JPEG2000 standard, in particular for what regards file size.</p>
