JPEG 2000 is the emerging image compression standard. The base standard (Part 1) was approved in January 2001. Several corporations, research organizations, and individual parties are already offering software implementations of, at minimum, Part 1 of the specification. This paper describes the test metrics and results for some of the currently available JPEG 2000 software implementations. The software implementations are also compared against the JPEG 2000 Verification Model (VM) and the Independent JPEG Group's JPEG implementation (IJG). The evaluation testing is performed under both the Unix (Solaris) and Windows operating systems. Results will be presented from the metrics categories mentioned above.
