Development Procedure of Type-1 Standards
BoG recommendations:
-
It was reported that there are great improvements in compression efficiency over ITM 5.0.
-
The performance of this temporal version of ITM by adding two tools among the adopted techonogies is comparable with IVC anchor as follows:
-
It is expected that the improvement of coding efficiency of ITM 6.0 is higher than the teimporal version for ITM 6.0.
-
Bog recommends initiating a process to elevate ITM 6.0 to WD stage based on the test result.
-
Bog recommends initiating a process to manage “Technology-IPR mapping management” document as made decision on the document “Development Procedure of Type-1 Standards”.
