Title
Energy-Aware MPEG-4 Single Profile in HW-SW Multi-Platform Implementation.
Abstract
Developers of next generation Multi-Processor Systems-on-a-chip (MPSoC) silicon platforms used in multimedia mobile devices should design efficient systems for diverse execution time vs. energy consumption trade-offs for a given quality of service. By exploiting Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) techniques we can obtain singular computational/power trades offs points and thus design energy efficient platforms. This paper presents a high level methodology to acquire an optimal set of working points for an MPEG-4 Single Profile (SP) Video encoder implementation. The flow starts from a MPEG-4 encoder described in C++ language which is translated to a SystemC hard/soft description which will be analyzed and further mapped into different platforms. Refined code is migrated to four different processor architectures: a processor research framework (CRISP-Trimaran), a soft core processor with specific functional units implemented on an Altera FPGA, an ASIC and a classic DSP.
