The 20th IEEE CS Data Compression Standard Committee Plenary Meeting Minutes

The 20th meeting of IEEE C/DC SC was held in Changsha, China. Quorum reached. The meeting was hosted by Prof. Feng Wu, the chair of DCSC.

Ms. Xiaoxu Luan presented the patent slides at the meeting. A call for potentially essential patents was made: no potentially essential patent claims were declared; no holders of potentially essential patents were identified. All IEEE CS DCSC members could ask for the IEEE official patent document from the secretary. The IEEE copyright policy and participant behavior statement were presented then. There were no questions or concerns. The meeting agenda was unanimously approved as presented without objection.

3161 WG – Digital Retina Systems:

The 8th IEEE 3161 Working Group Meeting was held on 25th August, 3 new PARs were received, discussed, and accepted by all attendees.

Approval of new PAR: P3161.5 (DCSC-20-N0001)

Motion to approve the new PAR of P3161.5. (Mover: Prof. Yaowei Wang; Second: Prof. Yonghong Tian). Prof. Wen Ji presented the PAR. It was unanimously approved as presented without objection.

Title: Standard for Algorithm Repository of Digital Retina Systems

Scope: This standard defines the functional and interface requirements of the algorithm repository in the digital retina systems (DRS) based on IEEE 3161 standard. This standard also specifies the encapsulation and description requirements for algorithms in the algorithm repository, in order to standardize the development and verification of algorithms.

Approval of new PAR: P3161.6 (DCSC-20-N0002)

Motion to approve the new PAR of P3161.6. (Mover: Prof. Yaowei Wang; Second: Prof. Yonghong Tian). Prof. Wen Ji presented the PAR. It was unanimously approved as presented without objection.

Title: Standard for Storage System of Digital Retina Systems

Scope: This standard defines the framework, functional requirements for management and data storage, and interface requirements for the storage system of digital retinal systems (DRS) based on IEEE 3161 standard.

Approval of new PAR: P3161.7 (DCSC-20-N0003)

Motion to approve the new PAR of P3161.7. (Mover: Prof. Yaowei Wang; Second: Prof. Yonghong Tian). Prof. Wen Ji presented the PAR. It was unanimously approved as presented without objection.

Title: Standard for End-edge-cloud Collaboration of Digital Retina Systems

Scope: This standard defines the logical architecture and functional requirements of the coordinative work of end, edge, and cloud. It also specifies functional models, general requirements, interfaces, etc., concerning task collaboration within digital retina systems (DRS) based on the IEEE 3161 standard.
