摘要:
A method and system for compressing video data in a computer has video processing that is distributed between preprocessing hardware in a video capture/controller card and a central processing unit of the computer. Frames of video data are passed to a motion estimation unit of the preprocessing hardware. This unit generates motion information describing inter-frame changes in the video data. Next, motion-compensated temporal filtering is performed on the frames of video data using the motion information. A video frame processing unit of the controller card, used for processing video data to the monitor, is reused for the temporal filtering of the input video data. Finally, the temporally-filtered video data is passed to the central processing unit, which performs inter-frame and/or intra-frame compression with reference to the motion information. In this way, motion-compensated temporal filtering is performed, thus removing the associated noise without adding to the CPU's processing burden, but the costs associated with dedicated compression hardware are avoided by relying on the video capture capabilities in the video controller card.

Systems and methods of operating a computing system may involve providing a native format driver to a print client in order to print a document. In one example, a print document communication including a print document in native format may be transmitted to the target printer, and the print document may be converted from the native format to a target printer format at the target printer.

摘要:
Systems and methods of operating a computing system may involve providing a printer driver to a print client in order to print a document. In one example, a request to print a document is initiated, wherein it is determined that a driver for a selected printer is not installed on the print client. Upon such a determination, a driver for the target printer may be located, transmitted to the print client, and installed on the print client.

According to some embodiments, a document processing unit may receive information associated with a document to be processed. The document processing unit might comprise, for example, a printer, scanner, copier, facsimile machine, or multi-function device. The document processing unit may then determine a user identifier indicating a user associated with the document to be processed. At least one user preference value associated with the user may then be automatically retrieved, and the document may be processed in accordance with the user preference value.
摘要:
A system and method for employing registers for data transfer in multiple hardware contexts and programming engines to facilitate high performance data processing. The system and method includes a processor that includes programming engines with registers for transferring data from one of the registers residing in an executing programming engine to a subsequent one of the registers residing in an adjacent programming engine.
摘要:
A processor such as a parallel hardware-based multithreaded processor (12) is described. The processor (12) can execute a computer instruction that is a branch instruction that causes an instruction sequence in the processor to branch on any specified bit of a register (80, 78, 76b) being set or cleared and which specifies which bit of the specified register to use as a branch control bit.
摘要:
A system and method for employing multiple hardware contexts and programming engines in a functional pipeline partitioned to facilitate high performance data processing. The system and method includes processing a sequence of packets with a sequence of threads, with the sequence of threads spanning multiple programmable processing elements integrated within a processor, and with the programmable processing elements providing multiple threads of execution such that each of the threads acquires exclusive modification access to data shared.
