The general framework of information hiding is conceptualized by
relating the state of an entity to a meaning. data representation schemes
such as bit plane replacement, spread spectrum, histogram manipulation,
mapping rules, and matrix encoding.

applications.

Therefore, there are various needs to manage protect the vast

number of videos including
1) tracking illegal distribution of copyrighted video to secure
business revenue
2) hyperlinking related contents while ensuring the hyperlink
information always stays intact with the video to enhance
user experiences
3) monitoring video broadcasts and Internet distributions to
generate reports regarding when, where, and how many times
a video has been aired/streamed.
The information is inserted into the host by means of
modifying part of the host based on the representation scheme
in use and a key so that the output (i.e., content + inserted
information as a single unit)

Title:Overview of the H.264/AVC video coding standard:

Abstract:
H.264/MPEG-4 AVC is the latest international video coding standard.
It was jointly developed by the Video Coding Experts Group
(VCEG) of the ITU-T and the Moving Picture Experts Group
(MPEG) of ISO/IEC.
It uses state-of-the-art coding tools and provides enhanced coding
efficiency for a wide range of applications, including video
telephony, video conferencing, TV,digital video authoring, digital
cinema.
The work on a new set of extensions to this standard has recently
been completed.
These extensions, known as the Fidelity Range Extensions (FRExt),
provide a number of enhanced capabilities relative to the base
specification.

Title: Overview of the High Efciency Video Coding (HEVC)

standard:
Abstract:

High Efciency Video Coding (HEVC) is currently being

prepared as the newest video coding standard of the ITU-T
Video Coding Experts Group and the ISO/IEC Moving Picture
Experts Group.
The main goal of the HEVC standardization effort is to enable
signicantly improved compression performance relative to
existing standardsin the range of 50% bit-rate reduction for
equal perceptual video quality.
This paper provides an overview of the technical features and
characteristics of the HEVC standard.

Title:Digital Watermarking and Steganography:

Abstract:

Steganography is derived from the Greek for covered writing and

essentially means to hide in plain sight.
As defined by Cachin steganography is the art and science of
communicating in such a way that the presence of a message cannot
be detected.
Simple stegano graphic techniques have been in use for hundreds of
years, but with the increasing use of files in an electronic format
new techniques for information hiding have become possible.
This document will examine some early examples of steganography
and the general principles behind its usage.
There will then be a discussion of some specific techniques for
hiding information in a variety of files and the attacks that may be
used to bypass steganography.

Title:Intelligent reversible watermarking and authentication: Hiding

depth map information for 3D cameras
Abstract:
Digital watermarking technique ensured that a digital watermark is
embedded into digital data and can only be detected or extracted by an
authorized person.
The watermark is hidden in the host data, in such a way that it is
inseparable from the data because of its resistant to many operations
which at the same time do not degrade the host.
Three-dimensional (3D) objects are complex digital file that are difficult to
handle compares to other multimedia data files, like video, audio or twodimensional images.
An object can be represented on a 3D grid by a set of facets representing
its boundary surface or by a set of mathematical surfaces.
Different sources of 3D data do not produce the same representation; these
pose a major problem with handling 3D data.
Changing from one representation to another is quite complex and often
constitute open problems...

A survey on different video watermarking techniques and

comparative analysis with reference to H.264/AVC:
Abstract:
Last few years have witnessed rapid growth in video coding technology.
Among various standards, H.264/Advanced Video Codec (AVC) is found
to be of significant importance regarding reduced bandwidth, better image
quality and network friendliness.
One of the current fields of interest is to develop a system with
authentication and copyright protection methodology embedded within an
efficient video codec.
In this paper we first perform a survey on available video watermarking
techniques, feasibility study on watermarking techniques meeting
application specific criteria for H.264/AVC
then we perform a comparative analysis based on robustness and
computational complexity of different watermarking algorithms.

Motion Picture, widely known as video, has become one of the most
inuential media in the entertainment industry.
video was virtually a sequence of frames. As semiconductor
technology advances, users become greedier and raise the bar of
technological needs.
We desire more features in video, including instant frame access,
high resolution, high frame rate, fast forward, etc. Therefore, the
Motion Picture Expert Group (MPEG) standard was established in
1993
Enabled video compact disc (VCD) technology, followed by
MPEG-2 , which enables the digital video disc (DVD) and satellite
TV.

Video was virtually a sequence of frames.

The frame reconstruction memory buffers within the encoder
and decoder must be doubled in size to accommodate the 2
anchor frames.
This is almost never an issue for the relatively expensive
encoder, and in these days of inexpensive DRAM it has
become much less of an issue for the decoder as well.
Another disadvantage is that there will necessarily be a delay
throughout the system as the frames are delivered out of order.
Most one-way systems can tolerate these delays, as they are
more objectionable in applications such as video conferencing
systems.

In the search of higher efciency in video coding,

H.264 is proposed by the Video Coding Experts Group and it has
become one of the most commonly practiced video compression formats
since 2003.
The design of H.264 provides an enhanced compression performance on
video representation for various purposes, including video telephony,
storage, broadcast, and streaming applications.
H.264 achieves a signicant improvement in rate distortion trade off by
offering high video quality for relatively low bitrate as compared to the
previous generations of video compression standard.
As a result, various digital video technologies lay on the H.264
compression framework, such as Blu-ray video disc, video streaming,
surveillance camera, handy video recorder, etc.
A similar trend is expected for the recently nalized H.265 video
compression standard. Currently, with the existence of broadband
Internet service and ubiquitou
