The complexity scale is exponential, + with complexity 1 being the lowest complexity. Complexity is a function + of both task 'complexity' and task 'scope'. + + The general rule of thumb is that a complexity 1 task should take 1-2 weeks + for a person very familiar with oFono codebase. Higher complexity tasks + require more time and have higher uncertainty. + + Higher complexity tasks should be refined into several lower complexity tasks + once the task is better understood. + + +NEON instruction set +==================== + +- The neon optimization code is split in two parts. Sample reordering and blocks +encoding. There is a neon optimization for encoding SBC. But mSBC is not +supported by this optimizer because the reordering has been specifically for +mSBC. + + Priority: Low + Complexity: C2 + +SSE instruction set +=================== + +- The decoder is optimized to take advantage of advanced processor instruction +sets. Currently implemented are MMX, arm neon, arm v6 and iwmmxt. SSE3 is +is available since almost 10 years now, on a large range of Intel processors. +It should be interesting to implement it and to compare with MMX implementation +on Intel processors. + + Priority: Medium + Complexity: C4 + +Decoder improvements +==================== + +- Currently, only the decoder is optimized to take advantage of advanced +processor instruction sets. In use cases like HFP 1.6, optimizing the encoder +will bring a significant latency, power and performance advantage. For exemple, +the MMX encoder is 3 to 6 time faster than the SIMD encoder. + + Priority: High + Complexity: C8 + -- 1.7.9.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
