Parallel MPEG-2 Encoder on ATM and Ethernet-Connected Workstations

We present a software-based parallel MPEG-2 video encoder implemented on a cluster of workstations connected via an ATM switch and also via Ethernet. We exploit parallelism on a Group of Picture (GOP) basis such that each GOP of the video is encoded by a particular processor. We propose a scheme for...

Zusammenfassung:We present a software-based parallel MPEG-2 video encoder implemented on a cluster of workstations connected via an ATM switch and also via Ethernet. We exploit parallelism on a Group of Picture (GOP) basis such that each GOP of the video is encoded by a particular processor. We propose a scheme for efficient I/O and data distribution.
