Paper Title:

A Resolution Independent Video Language

Authors:

Jonathan Swartz and Brian C. Smith

Main Point(s):

Rivl is a resolution independant video language, which takes images and video as the first class data and provide high level operations for them. Rivl is implemented as format and resolution independent which makes Rivl easy to port and easy to develop. Rivl is also made efficient by optimizing its interpreter by classical programming langurage optimizations and image video specific optimizations.

Possible Use(s):

To manipulate and edit images and video.

Extensions:

Rivl can be extended to support high level operations on image and video data, such as image analysis and computer vision.
