[M4IF Technotes] Documentation about MPEG-4

[Roland Bengtsson]

I'm doing a master thesis about MPEG-4 and searching for material for my 
report. I know there is a lot written about this subject but I still want 
to hear some recommendations from experts. I'm searching for papers and 
reports about:
1. How much CPU-power is required for different algorithms. I'm interrested 
in both encoding and decoding. Different profiles in MPEG-4, H.263, H.264 
etc. I read about AVC that will do miracle and nearly half the bit rate for 
the same quality. Does this cost cpu-cycles? It's difficult to compare 
different platforms but I am concentrated on DSP's and embedded systems.
2. Reports about scalability, advantages and disadvantages about algorithms 
like FGS and other methods.
3. Implementations of MPEG-4 on a DSP like Texas Instruments have. 
Efficiency and costs are important.
I'm hoping for a good discussion about this.
Best regards
