Abstract :
A scalable wallet-size cluster computing system has been proposed to obtain low cost, low power consumption and small sized digital home processing center. In this paper, we apply the wallet-size cluster for H.264 encoding to accelerate the H.264 video processing. We analyze the encoder scheme of the H.264, and perform the H.264 encoding in parallel through the nodes of the cluster. The experimental results show that an efficient real time video processing for H.264 can be achieved
