Abstract

High speed image and video processing is a key technology in multimedia applications, and, therefore, currently, many hardware accelerators to speed up such processing are developed and used. However, for the next generation advanced multimedia applications in the next generation, such as high quality virtual reality, bidirectional visual interface, etc., the hardware accelerators can not deal with tasks involved in these applications. This is because these tasks consist of complex and irregular computation structures, and therefore, it is not easy to implement simple hardware accelerators for these tasks. Considering the above situation, for the next generation multimedia applications, we have been developing a MIMD based multimedia processor, KUMP/D (Kyushu University Multimedia Processor on Datarol-II). KUMP/D is a flexible parallel processor, based on fine grain parallel processing, which is which indispensable in complex and irregular computation, and is also equipped with a specialized I/O network. This I/O network has enough throughput for real time video I/O, providing a mechanism, which supports the synchronization of process executions and real time video frames.

KUMP/D:九州大学多媒体处理器

高速图像和视频处理是多媒体应用中的一项关键技术，因此，目前开发和使用了许多硬件加速器来加快这种处理速度。然而，对于下一代高级多媒体应用，如高质量的虚拟现实、双向可视化界面等，硬件加速器无法处理这些应用中涉及的任务。这是因为这些任务由复杂和不规则的计算结构组成，因此，为这些任务实现简单的硬件加速器并不容易。考虑到上述情况，为了下一代多媒体应用，我们一直在开发基于MIMD的多媒体处理器KUMP/D(九州大学多媒体处理器on Datarol-II)。KUMP/D是一种灵活的并行处理器，基于细粒度并行处理，这是复杂和不规则计算中不可缺少的，并且还配备了专门的I/O网络。这个I/O网络有足够的实时视频I/O吞吐量，提供了一种机制，支持进程执行和实时视频帧的同步。
