Abstract—Parallel file systems are designed to mask the everincreasing gap between CPU and disk speeds via parallel I/O processing. While they have become an indispensable compo...
We present an efficient implementation of motion estimation (ME) for H.264/AVC using programmable graphics hardware. The cost function for ME in H.264/AVC depends on the motion v...
