Optimization of queueing performance and embedded I/O buffers for MPEG codec design

Abstract

This paper presents a generalized queueing model and an algorithm to obtain the best performance with the optimized embedded buffers in MPEG-2 codec designs. A generalized queueing model is proposed to apply not only to the MPEG-2 codec system, but also to other MPEG applications, like HDTV and MPEG-4. The searching algorithm is developed to find the optimal solution efficiently by exploring the correlation between buffers and system performance. The local optimum is guaranteed.
