Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) SIMD-type instructions and/or VLIW architecture are well-known features of high-performance processors. Although these features are effective for data-parallel algorithms, they have (almost) no effect for sequential algorithms such as decoding variable length codes. In order to address this issue, the media processor MAPCA has a co-processor for processing variable length code in addition to its 136-bit VLIW processor. Our prototype MPEG-4 decoder runs about 3.1 times faster than that using only the VLIW processor on MAPCA.
