This paper presents an implementation of a fast twodimensional inverse Discrete Cosine Transform (IDCT) with multimedia instructions for a software MPEG2 decoder. IDCT algorithms for sparse blocks which eliminate the calculation for zero coefficients are realized by using multimedia instructions. To reduce the cycle count for IDCT, an adaptive control method for these IDCT algorithms, based on ...
