The work presents a hardware-software API that is introduced by MPEG-4 part 9. The proposed rapid prototyping platform accelerates the development and deployment of hardware accelerated MPEG/H.264 enabled devices. This project focuses on the rapid prototyping and implementation of a system-on-chip MPEG-4 video encoder/decoder. This chip can be used as an added coprocessor to give the capabilities of video broadcasting or conferencing to available portable devices. The developed framework; on top of the rapid prototyping platform, provides a hardware layer that can host off-the-shelf ip-cores for video processing. The results of this project were proposed to the 2004 MPEG (Mohamed, T.S. and Badawy, W., ISO/IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11/m 10439, 2003; ISO/IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11/m 10824, 2004).
