Abstract
A data processing system including a buffer for temporarily maintaining a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams and a switch. Each portion of the compressed stream comprises one or more units of an encoded media signal. The switch provides selective connectivity between the buffer and a plurality of processors. The plurality of processors can be configured to analyze the one or more units of the encoded media signal in the buffer to generate statistical data about the encoded media signal.
Claims23
A data processing system comprising:
- a buffer for temporarily maintaining a portion of a plurality of compressed data streams, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- a switch for providing selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to analyze the one or more units of the encoded media signal in the buffer to generate statistical data about the encoded media signal.
A method for data processing comprising:
- temporarily maintaining a portion of a compressed data stream in a buffer, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- providing selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to analyze the one or more units of the encoded media signal in the buffer to generate statistical data about the encoded media signal.
A computer-readable medium having a computer program for processing data comprising:
- logic configured to temporarily maintain a portion of a compressed data stream in a buffer, each portion comprising one or more units of an encoded media signal;
- and
- logic configured to provide selective connectivity between the buffer and one or more processors configured to analyze the one or more units of the encoded media signal in the buffer to generate statistical data about the encoded media signal.
