However, it is difficult to apply on H.264/AVC decoding in frame level, because the bitstreams are encoded with lots of dependencies and little parallelism is left to be explored. Therefore, many researches can only adopt hardware assistance. Fortunately, pure software pipelining can be applied on H.264/AVC decoding in macroblock level with reasonable performance gain. However, the pipeline stages might need to synchronize with other stages and incur lots of extra overhead. Moreover, the overhead becomes relatively larger as the stages themselves are executed faster with better hardware and software optimization. We first group multiple stages into larger groups as ”batched” pipelining to execute concurrently in multicore systems. The stages in different groups might not need to synchronize to each other so that it incurs little overhead and can be highly scalable. Therefore, a novel effective batch-pipeline (BP) approach for H.264/AVC decoding on multicore systems is proposed. Moreover, because of its flexibility, BP can be used with other hardware approaches or software technologies to further improve performance. To optimize our approach, we analyze how to group the macroblocks and derive close-form formulas to guide the grouping. We also conduct various experiments on various bitstreams to verify our approach. The results show that it can speed up to 93% and achieve up to 249 and 70 FPS for 720P and 1080P resolutions, respectively, on a 4-core machine over a published optimized H.264 decoder.We believe our batch-pipelining approach creates a new effective direction for multimedia software codec development.","PeriodicalId":299459,"journal":{"name":"2010 Data Compression Conference","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129968441","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}

Interactive transmission of compressed images has been identified as the most competitive approach, being JPIP, JPEG2000 Interactive Protocol, a key-enabler for these situations. Also, it has been reported that JPIP Proxy Servers help to increase the transmission performance, and that prefetching strategies help to lower responsiveness time. In this paper we contribute a smart JPIP Proxy Server that, thanks to a prefetching strategy undertaken during idle transmission times, largely improves the viewing experience of the final user because of its anticipation of future navigation requests. Experimental results are reported for a remote sensing and a medical environment, respectively performing panning and zoom in, showing enhanced performance in both cases.","PeriodicalId":299459,"journal":{"name":"2010 Data Compression Conference","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124461771","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}

In spatially scalable video encoder, how to resize the captured high-resolution video to get low-resolution video has great effect on the quality of experience (QoE) in the clients receiving low-resolution video. In this paper, we propose a new resizing algorithm called hybrid epitomic resizing (HER), which can make the resized image preserve the same ‘physical’ resolution with original image by the way of utilizing texture similarity inside image and highlight regions of interest while avoiding potential artifacts. For hybrid epitomic resizing, we also design two new inter-layer prediction methods to eliminate the redundancy between adjacent spatial layers instead of conventional inter-layer prediction. Experimental results show that HER can get resized images with perceptually much better quality and the performance of new inter-layer prediction are comparable to that of conventional inter-layer prediction in H.264 SVC.","PeriodicalId":299459,"journal":{"name":"2010 Data Compression Conference","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121004615","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}
