<p>An efficient method and device for the parallel processing of multimedia data. Blocks (or portions thereof) are transmitted to various parallel processors, in the order of their dependency data. Earlier blocks are sent to the parallel processors first, with later blocks sent later. The blocks are stored in the parallel processors in specific locations, and shifted around as necessary, so that every block, when it is processed, has its dependency data located in a specific set of earlier blocks with specified relative positions. In this manner, its dependency data can be retrieved with the same commands. That is, earlier blocks are shifted around so that later blocks can be processed with a single set of commands that instructs each processor to retrieve its dependency data from specific known relative locations that do not vary.</p> |
