The overall organization of the encoder is +shown in Figure 2. The Master server is the overall coordinator. +It allocates groups of frames to the Slave servers for encoding. +The sharing of the files is achieved best, if the directories +containing the video files are NFS mounted and accessible uniformly +to all processors (alternatively they can be sent out though sockets +by the Master). The various activities are managed by inter process +communication through sockets. |
