1 Video Compression for Desktop Applications
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper discusses the current state of compression for digital video on the desktop. Today there are many choices for video compression that yield different performance in terms of compression factor, quality, bitrate, and cost. Users want a single low cost solution which, unfortunately, today is non-existent. Consequently, users will have to develop applications in an environment with multiple representations for digital video unless PC’s can be assigned to dedicated applications. Alternatively, programmable compression/decompression boards can be used to solve the problem. Eventually, special-purpose hardware solutions will be replaced by general-purpose software running on desktop parallel processors which will be implemented by multiple CPU’s per chip.

A Reconfigurable Machine for Applications in Image and Video Compression
This paper presents a reconfigurable machine for applications in image or video compression. The machine can be used stand alone or as a universal accelerator co-processor for desktop computers for image processing. It is well suited for image compression algorithms such as JPEG for still pictures or for encoding MPEG movies. It provides a much cheaper and more flexible hardware platform than s...

three dimensional- high efficiency video coding (3D-HEVC) is the expanded version of the latest video compression standard, namely high efficiency video coding (HEVC), which is used to compress 3D videos. 3D videos include texture video and depth map. Since the statistical characteristics of depth maps are different from those of texture videos, new tools have been added to the HEVC standard fo...
