Abstract

This paper presents a strategy to modify a sequential implementation of an H.264/AVC motion estimation to run on a new reconfigurable architecture called RoSA. The modifications aim to provide more parallelism that will be exploited by the architecture. In the strategy presented in this paper we used traditional loop unrolling and profile information as techniques to modify the application and to generate a best fit solution to RoSA architecture.
