Abstract: Hardware accelerators and methods for out-of-order processing are described. In one embodiment, a processor includes a hardware accelerator having a plurality of processing elements coupled to form a plurality of logical rows of a multidimensional processing array and a plurality of logical columns of the multidimensional processing array, wherein a processing element of the plurality of processing elements includes a switch to selectively source, from either of an output for a first dataset from an upstream processing element of the plurality of processing elements or a boundary condition value for a second dataset stored in the processing element, based on a switch control value provided to the processing element; and a core coupled to the hardware accelerator.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provides for changing a perspective of a video such as a display perspective of an object displayed in the video. In one example, the method and apparatus changes the display perspective of an object displayed in the video based on information indicating an orientation and/or position of the recording device that captures the object on the video. To do so, the method and apparatus may determine a current display perspective for an object displayed in the video based on information indicating an orientation and/or position of the recording device. By comparing the current display perspective to a desired display perspective for the object, the method and apparatus determines an amount of display perspective adjustment for the object and selects appropriate perspective adjustment methods to carry out the adjustment. Accordingly, the display perspective adjustment is made to the video automatically for the object displayed in the video without user intervention.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provides for controlling presentation of multimedia content. In one example, the method and apparatus changes a display perspective of a multimedia presenting system that presents the multimedia content by determining an amount of display perspective adjustment based on a relative position between a user and the multimedia presenting system. According to the determined amount of display perspective adjustment, the method and apparatus issues one or more control commands that instruct the multimedia presenting system to change the display perspective. The display perspective may be changed for example by moving a display or portion thereof and/or by changing the perspective of the displayed image on the display while leaving the position of the display alone.
