Research Overview: Efficient Parallelization of H.264 Decoding
H.264 is an advanced video compression algorithm. It contains complex Digital Signal Processing (DSP) routines and significant control flow. The complexity enables very high data compression rate, making it an ideal standard to use in todays media-rich communication and storage domains. However, its sequential control flow makes H.264 decoding very difficult to parallelize. My work proposes a functional parallelization technique to expose the rich data-level parallelism in the decoding process, allowing effective parallelization of H.264 on multiprocessor platforms.
