A method and system for decoding an image having a plurality of tiles is provided. The system performs entropy decoding of bit information to generate bin information where the bin information is in tile order. The system converts the bin information from tile order to raster order. Then the system performs symbol decoding of the bin information in raster order.

Tile support in decoders

Bursts of data are managed. Data is stored in a machine readable memory device a first time at a first memory address. The machine readable memory device has one or more burst boundaries. The first memory address has a first alignment with respect to the burst boundaries. The data is stored in the machine readable memory device a second time at a second memory address. The second memory address has a second alignment with respect to the burst boundaries.

Managing bursts of data

Multi-component data is managed. Pixel image data is stored in a machine readable memory device. The pixel image data is decomposed into multiple colorspace components. The multiple colorspace components are stored in one continuous machine-readable memory segment of a machine-readable memory. The machine-readable memory has one or more burst boundaries.
