Requirements of algorithms for handling object-based media

Afdelingsomschrijving: The Information Technology department has four
sub-capabilities.  The Compiler Technology (CT) discipline researches areas
of compilation for multi-issue processors, scheduling techniques,
compilation for digital signal processors, code compaction, reconfigurable
computing, and fast simulation. Information Management (IMP) is used to
optimize the storage and retrieval of data with real-time properties. We
develop and experiment with technologies to handle audio/video files for
(new) storage products in a PC environment. Computer Graphics (CG) is the
conversion of a model of an object into an image that is a view on that
object. The focus lies on 3-dimensional visualisation algorithms and
technology. Processor Oriented Architecture (POA) focuses on processor
architecture, attached accelerator modules, and multi-processor systems.

Opdrachtomschrijving: The project will take place within the POA cluster
and will be part of a larger project on the requirements of object-based
media formats (e.g. MPEG-4) for embedded digital processing platforms. This
larger project, will investigate the relations between entertainment
systems and object-based media processing algorithms, analyse those
algorithms to determine their resource requirements, and analyse upcoming
media processing platforms with respect to those requirements. For example,
one interesting combination of media algorithms is the use of MPEG-4 video
and 3D graphics to allow users to navigate through movie scenes. In our
area, a platform is a system-on-silicon, e.g. a digital television
controller containing a.o. embedded processors, streaming media
encoders/decoders, and memory. Questions to be answered as part of the
assignment are: What platforms are being proposed for particular
applications? What kinds of processing elements do these platforms contain?
How many resources of those platforms do the algorithms consume?
