  Description     : kakadu demo tools

 A comprehensive, heavily optimized, fully compliant software toolkit for
 JPEG2000 developers.
 Now with multi-threaded processing to fully utilize parallel processing
 resources (multiple CPUs, multi-core CPUs or hyperthreading). You can select
 the single-threaded processing model from v5.0 and before, or a new
 multi-threaded processing model (requires only a few extra lines of code in
 your application).
 Kakadu is a complete implementation of the JPEG2000 standard, Part 1, -- i.e.,
 ISO/IEC 15444-1. This new image compression standard is substantially more
 complex than the existing JPEG standard, both from a computational and a
 conceptual perspective.
 Kakadu also provides a comprehensive implementation for several of the most
 useful features from Part 2 of the JPEG2000 standard, including general
 multi-component transforms and arbitrary wavelet transform kernels.
