An Algorithm for Dynamic Color Management

Though the problem of color quantization in static images is not completely solved, there are a few algorithms that produce good results. Color quantization with dynamic color requests is an unsolved problem. In this paper we present an algorithm that manages dynamic color allocations without advance knowledge of the sequence of color requests. It uses a dynamic color table that can be used simultaneously in multiple windows from one or more applications. Advance knowledge about color requirements will improve the results of the algorithm.
