In one embodiment of the present invention a convolution engine configures a parallel processing pipeline to perform multi-convolution operations. More specifically, the convolution engine configures the parallel processing pipeline to independently generate and process individual image tiles. In operation, for each image tile, the pipeline calculates source locations included in an input image batch. Notably, the source locations reflect the contribution of the image tile to an output tile of an output matrix—the result of the multi-convolution operation. Subsequently, the pipeline copies data from the source locations to the image tile. Similarly, the pipeline copies data from a filter stack to a filter tile. The pipeline then performs matrix multiplication operations between the image tile and the filter tile to generate data included in the corresponding output tile. To optimize both on-chip memory usage and execution time, the pipeline creates each image tile in on-chip memory as-needed.

A method and system for computing 2-D DCT/IDCT which is easy to implement with VLSI technology to achieve high throughput to meet the requirements of high definition video processing in real time is described. A direct 2-D matrix factorization approach is utilized to compute the 2-D DCT/IDCT. The 8x8 DCT/IDCT is computed through four 4x4 matrix multiplication sub-blocks. Each sub-block is half the size of the original 8x8 size and therefore requires a much lower number of multiplications. Additionally, each sub-block can be implemented independently with localized interconnection so that parallelism can be exploited and a much higher DCT/IDCT throughput can be achieved.

Implementations of transforms, such as a discrete cosine transform (DCT) and inverse DCT on a graphics processing unit (GPU), use direct matrix multiplication. GPU features such as parallel graphics pipelines, multi-channel capability, and multiple render targets are used to obtain significantly faster processing speeds than on a conventional central processing unit (CPU). Various rendering modes may be used, such as point rendering mode, line rendering mode, and triangle or quadrilateral rendering mode.

The present invention relates to a low density parity check (LDPC) encoding method and an apparatus thereof. In the LDPC encoding method, a matrix multiplication corresponding to ET⁻¹ and T⁻¹ is eliminated according to a structural characteristic in an encoding process. Accordingly, shift weights that are not −1 among shift weights corresponding to partial blocks A, B, and C of a parity check matrix are used to perform an encoding operation, and a cyclic shift operation of an information unit block is performed in parallel so that a first parity block and a second parity block may be simultaneously generated.

The invention discloses a quantum-key-distribution-network-based mobile encryption system and a communication method thereof. The method comprises that: a mobile terminal is registered in a network; the registered mobile terminal is connected with any quantum terminal by a key updating interface, and applies for the downloading of shared keys in a certain data volume to the quantum terminal; after the mobile terminal downloads the keys, the quantum terminal transmits a quantum centralized control station address to the mobile terminal for updating, and the mobile terminal takes a centralized control station on the quantum centralized control station address as a calling centralized control station; after the calling centralized control station is determined, the mobile terminal submits a cipher text to the calling centralized control station; the calling centralized control station re-encrypts the cipher text, and transmits the re-encrypted cipher text to a called centralized control station; the called centralized control station re-encrypts the cipher text, and transmits the re-encrypted cipher text to a called user; and after the called user decrypts the re-encrypted cipher text to obtain a plaintext, the communication is finished. In the method, the encryption does not require multiple matrix multiplication operations, so the computational load of the encryption is greatlyreduced; and simultaneously, the key distribution security of the highest level can be ensured in the key distribution of a quantum key distribution network.

An expense allocation method utilizes matrix multiplication to transform a set of reciprocal or cascading allocation rules into a new set of one-step allocation rules. The new set of rules reallocates amounts directly to the ultimate destination without going through numerous intermediate levels of reallocation. By taking advantage of the specific structure of the matrix, and partitioning the matrix into four (4) subparts, the matrix multiplication process is greatly simplified. The expense allocation method can be easily and efficiently implemented on a computer system, including computers based upon parallel or vector architectures. This invention permits most allocation work to be done before the end of an accounting period, allowing end-of-period accounting work to be completed sooner. Alternatively, expenses can be allocated as they occur, rather than waiting until the end of a period.
