An interface for the design and implementation of dynamic applications on multi-processor architectures

摘要

Embedded multimedia systems are becoming more complex and versatile, and need to support dynamic applications with multiple use cases. Switching from one use case to another during run time involves changing the application task graph configuration. This paper presents concepts and an interface for modeling and implementing dynamic applications. We show that this interface can be used to model several application change scenarios, and that it can be implemented on different multiprocessor architectures.
