Tasks for non-mandatory assignment 2:
- Download the Motion JPEG encoder from Bitbucket.
- The MJPEG code is an unoptimized single threaded encoder. This code will also be used for the other non-mandatory assignments in the course.
- Try to apply some of the GPU optimizations presented on the second lecture. Use profiling and benchmarks to see how this improves the execution time of your program. Test the unmodified MJPEG code on one of the Jetson TX1 development kits. Use CUDA to optimize the encoder, with focus on the DCT-part of the code.
