A practical example

A server is running a medical 3D application, sending bitmaps to 18 remote clients 
across the enterprise. To allow for optimum network performance, the bitmaps are 
being compressed.

• Scenario 1:

 compression is performed by the CPU

• Scenario 2:

 compression is performed by the MICB-1340 board

Technical specifi cations

Format: 

   

 

standard PCI-e x8 board

Codec:  

 

 

lossless:   based on JPEG-LS (ISO/IEC 14495/1) 

 

 

 

lossy:  

based on JPEG

Performance:

  

 

maximum throughput of 1200 MB/s

Power consumption:

 

20 W at full power

Typical setup that 1 board can handle:

 

 

 

• 15 simultaneous users at 1600 x 1200 x 24 bit/pixel

 

 

 

• frame rate: 25 Hz

 

 

 

• 75% of image updated

 

 

 

• 75% of users active

Deliverables: 

 

 

• PCI-e board

 

 

 

• Linux driver (kernel 2.6.x)

 

 

 

• Linux application library

 

 

 

• Windows
