MULTIMEDIA PROCESSING ON MANY-CORE TECHNOLOGIES USING DISTRIBUTED MULTIMEDIA MIDDLEWARE

摘要

Today, there are increasingly more powerful many-corernprocessors (MCPs) that are integrated into stationary andrnmobile devices, freely programmable and well suited forrnmultimedia processing. However, there are still many obstaclesrnand problems when programming multimedia applicationsrnfor MCPs. In this paper we show that all thesernobstacles and problems can be solved by treating a devicernwith an integrated MCP in the same way as a distributedrnsystem and using distributed multimedia middleware evenrnfor developing locally running applications. This approachrncompletely hides all specific aspects of an MCP while thernapplication can fully exploit the processing power of MCPsrnin local and even remote devices.
