/**
* A package of the Java Image I/O API dealing with low-level I/O from files and
* streams.
*
* The {@code ImageInputStream} interface unifies streaming and file-based
* operations. An abstract base class, {@code ImageInputStreamImpl} is provided
* to simplify writing a new {@code ImageInputStream} class. Concrete
* implementation classes ({@code FileImageInputStream},
* {@code FileCacheImageInputStream}, and {@code MemoryCacheImageInputStream})
* are provided that allow input to come from a {@code File} or
* {@code InputStream} with or without the use of a temporary cache file.
*
* The {@code ImageOutputStream} interface performs an analogous function for
* output. An abstract base class, {@code ImageOutputStreamImpl} is provided,
* along with concrete implementation classes ({@code FileImageOutputStream},
* {@code FileCacheImageOutputStream}, and {@code MemoryCacheImageOutputStream})
* are provided that allow output to go to a {@code File} or
* {@code OutputStream} with or without the use of a temporary cache file.
*
* The {@code IIOByteBuffer} class provides an alternative way to perform reads
* of sequences of bytes that reduces the amount of internal data copying.
*
* @since 1.4
