ENERGY ENERGY- -EFFICIENT MULTI EFFICIENT MULTI- - THREADED VIDEO DECODING THREADED VIDEO DECODING
Introduction Parallelization Video sequence on different cores Decoding levels of group of pictures Independent slice within each frame Macro block level
Macro-block Level Applied for spatially predicted MBs No such restrictions for temporally predicted
Experiment Intel i7quad-core 1.6G, 6M cache WattsUp PRO power meter Use different video in these two experiment
Result Frame Level Encoding MVC mode Quantization parameter 22 30 fps Performance Evaluation Excluding the frame buffer storage time Energy Consumpton Subtracting the idel power from the average
Result Frame Level Encoding SVC encoder with base and enhancement layer Quantization parameter 46, 34 30 fps Open SVC decoder with MB decoding algorithm

Introduction Macro-block parallelize Dynamically scheduling task at runtime
Introduction I - MB : difficult to parallelize Tight data dependency P - MB : easily parallelize No strong data dependency
Technique Three stage Preparse Highly sequential Render Significant opportunities for parallelism Filter Obviously parallel
Technique Prepare stage Buffer a small amount of recently decoded prediction modes/MVs from neighboring MGs
Schedule Greedy Static compile time Assume equal execution time for all MBs for each MB types Run time MB level MB types Encoded stream sizes
Experiment Resolution : 320x144 Contains I, P frames PentiumM 1.5GHz
