Abstract

We use a timed extension of Petri nets, the so calledTimed-Arc Petri Nets, for the specification and analysis ofthe MPEG-2 Video Encoder. We have computed boundsfor the necessary time to encode each type of frame, alsowe present an improvement on the encoding process whichtakes advantage of the potential parallelism degree of theMPEG-2 video encoding algorithm, so reaching a 90% ofreduction on the time requirements, with respect to the originalMPEG-2 encoder.
