Quad-Core Media Processor SoC with Implicative Dynamic Parallel Programming Model

摘要

The advancement of process technology enables the integration of multiple cores featuring the parallel processing with low operating energy and efficient resource utilization in embedded media processors. We propose mobile media processor SoC integrating RISC core and quad-core data processing engines with shared array of memory modules. The implicative dynamic parallel programming model dynamically distributes the programmer-specified parallelizable functions into multiple cores. The experimental result with parallelized audio processing algorithm on FPGA platform shows the effectiveness of the proposed processor SoC.
