Abstract
An audio processing method and a computing system performing the audio processing method are provided. The computing system includes an audio processing engine and a host central processing unit (CPU). The audio processing engine determines whether it is possible for the audio processing engine to perform a first process for first audio data, based on a run time of the first process for the first audio data, and performs the first process or requests the host CPU to perform the first process, based on a result of the determination.
Claims22
An audio processing method that is performed by a computing system comprising a host central processing unit (CPU) and an audio processing engine, the audio processing method comprising:
- determining, by the audio processing engine, whether it is possible for the audio processing engine to perform a first process for first audio data, based on a run time of the first process for the first audio data;
- and
- performing, by the audio processing engine, the first process or requesting, by the audio processing engine, the host CPU to perform the first process, based on a result of the determining.
An audio processing method that is performed by a computing system comprising a host central processing unit (CPU) and an audio processing engine, the audio processing method comprising:
- transmitting, by the host CPU, information about a plurality of processes for audio data to the audio processing engine;
- determining, by the audio processing engine, whether it is possible for the audio processing engine to perform the plurality of processes, based on run times of the plurality of processes;
- and
- performing, by the audio processing engine, at least one of the plurality of processes or requesting, by the audio processing engine, the host CPU to perform the at least one of the plurality of processes, based on a result of the determining.
19-23. (canceled)
A computing system for performing audio processing, the computing system comprising:
- a host central processing unit (CPU);
- and
- an audio processing engine provided separately from the host CPU, the audio processing engine configured to determine whether it is possible for the audio processing engine to perform a first process for first audio data, based on a run time of the first process for the first audio data, and to perform the first process by the audio processing engine or request the host CPU to perform the first process, based on a result of the determination.
