However, the turn restriction algorithm (TRA) in MTR induces huge time complexity, making the optimal solution under large networks extremely hard to find. This paper proposes the fast turn restriction algorithm (FTRA), a method to reduce the time complexity of TRA from $gt O(16^{M-1}$) to O(M2). FTRA aims to find the locally optimal solution through a subspace of the full solution space of TRA by setting constraints on the property of the feasible solutions. An experiment of the algorithms for a $4times 4$ mesh network shows that FTRA can reduce the execution time of TRA by 2 to more than 4 orders of magnitude, specifically, from 2.8 hours to 440 ms. The cycle-accurate simulation of a chiplet integration system composed of five $4times4$ mesh networks shows that the optimal solutions of FTRA achieve very close or even equal network performance to those of TRA.","PeriodicalId":293477,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th International Conference on Circuits and Systems (ICCS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122981774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deblocking filter is an important tool to improve the efficiency of video coding in both the H.264 Advanced Video Coding (H.264/AVC) standard and the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard. To support these two standards, this paper proposes an area-efficient general deblocking filter hardware architecture. The proposed architecture reuses similar parts in the filter to control the increased area cost of supporting multiple standards and achieves a 37% gate count reduction. And by switching the connection form of filter modules between series and parallel, a good trade-off is made between throughput and area. The architecture has a throughput of 8K@60fps in H.264/AVC and 8K@160fps in HEVC. The experimental result shows that the multi-standard architecture consumes 61.3k gates at 526 MHz in GF 28 nm process, and the design has been successfully integrated into a multi-standard video codec.","PeriodicalId":293477,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th International Conference on Circuits and Systems (ICCS)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127627300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
