Research and Development of the Algorithm of Mixing Audio Data Streams for Heterogeneous Computer Systems in Telecommunications

Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm enhanced mixing of audio streams for computation on GPUs, which combines multiple stages of mixing by using two-pass rendering, which significantly reduces the switching time between buffers. Methods of computer experimental comparative studies were carried out evaluating the performance of the developed algorithm. The purpose of the present paper is development of an efficient algorithm for mixing audio streams for processing on GPUs. The method of transfer operations computing on graphics processors with the use of Shader programs was developed. Novel features presented solutions is using a two-pass rendering. The results showed that the application of the developed algorithm leads to an increase in computational performance up to 6 times. Presented solution can be implemented as software in the telecommunications multiprocessor systems.
