Features: With the development of digital and information technology, there has been a trend of cross-pollination and integration in fields such as computers, communications, broadcasting, and home appliances.

Chapters one and two introduce the general overview of digital information system technology; Chapters three to six introduce the principles of digital video and audio technology, with a focus on digital video and audio compression and coding technology and its standards, including JPEG, MPEG series, H.324, H.26X, G.723, and AC-3, among others; Chapters seven to nine introduce practical digital video and audio systems, including consumer digital audio-visual products, multimedia computers, digital audio broadcasting (DAB), high-definition television (HDTV), interactive television (ITV), and video-on-demand (VOD), among others.
