Recently, three issues extended from H.264 are widely discussed. These are: How to generate 3D video, How to generate streamlined real-time video, and How to generate view-point selectable video. Involved video coding techniques are: 1. Multi-view video coding MVC, 2. Scalable video coding SVC, and 3. Multi-view plus depth video coding MVD. And related key hardware technologies are first, to exploit data parallelism and independent processes in the flow of video encoding/decoding, to enhance vector and pipelined parallel computing; Secondly, to effectively equip and manage the assorted memories; and lastly, to design hardware architecture that can cope with many codec formats. This research team has six years of experience in studying graphics and video computing. The purpose of this three-year research proposal is to try to solve those emerging video codec issues with practicality using hardware techniques, based on the team’s research experience. Research directions include: [1] MVC codec parallel computing and memory management architecture. Topics include: A1. Prediction structure that can reduce dependencies in motion compensation decoding to facilitate parallel computing; A2. Architecture of internal buffers to enhance efficiency if decoding; A3. Adaptive parallel computing and internal buffers architecture for various camera arrangements. [2] Parallel computing and memory management architecture for integrated MVC and MVD codec. Topics include: B1. Effective prediction structure considering both inter-views and inter-layers; B2. Prediction structure that can reduce dependencies between layers and views in motion compensation; B3. Adaptive parallel computing and internal buffers architecture for various camera arrangements. [3] Parallel computing and memory management architecture for integrated SVC and MVC codec. Topics include: C1. Pipeline design of the three steps—layer extraction, layer projection, and hole filling and filtering—in MVD; C2. Pipeline design of MVD integrating MVC decoding; C3. Under the condition that the number of holes does not increase after layer projection, reduction of original views to relieve storage requirement and computation in MVC decoding.
