Computational complexity is an important performance constraint for software-only video CODECs. The aim of this research is to develop a video coding system with variable, controllable computational complexity. Adaptive algorithms for DCT and motion estimation are proposed separately to reduce complexity of each function and maintain it at target level. An integrated approach to video CODEC complexity management is also addressed. This work will have potential benefit for a wide range of computation-constrained or power-constrained multimedia applications.
