Session 18 overview: Power efficient media processing

Multimedia applications are expanding in capabilities and new application processors are required to be reconfigurable. Multiprocessor capabilities increasingly include support for multiple standards, new integrations for lower power applications, and next-generation video. Combined graphics and video processing are becoming state-of-the-art and require new innovations for memory use and optimization. Portability of devices that can address video-intensive applications is emerging as suitable solutions for home and industry. Use of graphics applications demonstrating HD1080p resolutions for home video systems that are driven from portable solutions is becoming mainstream. Increased usage of video in mobile applications is driving screen resolutions and video playback/record to the latest standards.
