Optimal Parallel MPEG Encoding

The Tcl/Tk extension, Tcl/Rivl, provides a suite of commands to manipulate audio and video data. Compressing long sequences of MPEG video requires a significant amount of computation power. This paper outlines a parallel algorithm that achieves real-time MPEG compression without specialized hardware.
