We have developed an environment, based upon robust, existing, open source software, for tuning applications written using MPI, OpenMP or both. The goal of this effort, which inte...
Since motion-compensated temporal filtering (MCTF) becomes an important temporal prediction scheme in video coding algorithms, this paper presents an efficient temporal prediction ...
Since processor performance scalability will now mostly be achieved through thread-level parallelism, there is a strong incentive to parallelize a broad range of applications, inc...
Multiple-description coding (MDC) provides a promising solution to support the error-prone transmission over multiple channels. One extremely important application is to design ef...
In this paper, we are concerned with the modeling of motion between frames of a video sequence. Typically, it is not possible to represent the motion between frames by a single mod...
