Word (21 KB)A Revision and Proposed Grammar for the MSDL Syntactic Description Language
Contribution M0856, 34th MPEG Meeting, Florence, Italy, March 1996
Introduction
This document addresses some of the ambiguities and shortcoming of MSDL Syntactic Description Language (MSDL-S - the bitstream syntax specification part of MSDL), as described in document MPEG96/N1164, and proposes some modifications that streamline its definition. In addition, it introduces a formal grammar for the definition of the language as a basis for unambiguous definition of the syntactic constructs it allows.
