Abstract :
The demand for multimedia mobile terminals has created a need for low power implementation of video compression algorithms. In this paper we consider different implementations for the discrete cosine transform. The effect of pipelining and parallelism on reducing the power dissipation is considered for fast discrete cosine transform algorithms, as well as ROM-based algorithms
