MPEG-2 has 7 distinct parts as well. The first part is the Systems section which defines the container format and the Transport Streams that are designed to carry the digital video and audio over ATSC and DVB. The Program Stream defines the container format for lossy compression on optical disks, DVDs and SVCDs.
Java is the first language to provide a cross-platform I/O library that is powerful enough to handle all these diverse tasks. Java is the first programming language with a modern, object-oriented approach to input and output. Java s I/O model is more powerful and more suited to real-world tasks than any other major language used today. Java I/O is the first and still the only book to fully expose the power and sophistication of this library.
