This project is to develop a program that implements a hierarchical JPEG encoder/decoder for greyscale images.
Write your own C/C++ code to implement hierarchical coding for the encoder and decoder of the Hierarchical JPEG. Do not implement the transform coding, quantization, and entropy coding part. You may include any publicly available code for this. Build a client-server system such that the encoder is on the server side while the decoder is on the client side.
