For a flexible consumer multimedia device that remains as robust and cost-effective as the current ones, media algorithms should become more flexible with respect to their resource requirements with the exchange in output quality. We call such algorithms scalable. The state of a cluster of scalable video algorithms (Job) in a consumer multimedia terminal can be described by three parameters. The first one is the job mode, that is the actual cluster of functions and their connections. The second one is the set of valid quality levels of the job mode, which is called operational set. The last one is the assigned quality level. The first two parameters supply the correct processing and the valid search space for the system optimization, and are selected by the job itself. The latter one reflects the actual resource allocation according to the available system resources and is selected by the QoS Resource Manager.
