Problem

Existing data processing technologies for System on Chip (SoC) face challenges in ensuring data integrity during compression, particularly with lossy compression methods like ASTC and TE, and struggle with the complexity of lossless compression methods like AFBC.

Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If lossy compression technologies (ASTC, TE) are used to compress mixed data on the bus, then bandwidth and storage space are reduced, but data integrity cannot be guaranteed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebandwidth and storage spaceVSAvoiddata integrity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the mixed data on the bus into different data types (e.g., texture data, vertex data, index data) and applies specific compression modes to each type. This segmentation allows lossless compression to be applied to data types requiring integrity while enabling lossy compression for data types where some quality degradation is acceptable, thus resolving the contradiction between bandwidth reduction and data integrity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements local quality by applying different compression strategies to different portions of the data based on their specific requirements. Critical data portions (like vertex data and index data) receive lossless compression to ensure integrity, while less critical portions (like some texture data) can use lossy compression to maximize bandwidth efficiency. This localized approach resolves the universal contradiction faced by prior art.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Reliability

If AFBC compression technology is used to ensure data integrity, then data compression is achieved, but the implementation complexity increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata integrityVSAvoidimplementation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the parameter of compression approach from a single uniform method (AFBC) to multiple data-type-specific methods. By identifying and categorizing different data types in the mixed data stream, the system applies appropriate compression parameters and algorithms to each type, reducing the overall implementation complexity while maintaining data integrity where required.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the data processing task by identifying different data types within the mixed data stream and applying targeted compression strategies to each segment. This avoids the need to implement complex universal compression algorithms like AFBC for all data types, thereby reducing implementation complexity while preserving data integrity for critical data types through lossless compression.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Ease of manufacture

If uniform compression mode is applied to all raw data in the data packet, then implementation is simplified, but compression efficiency and data integrity are compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimplementation simplicityVSAvoidcompression efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by determining the data type of each raw datum and applying the most appropriate compression mode locally to each data type. This targeted approach improves compression efficiency by using optimal algorithms for each data type while maintaining implementation simplicity through automated data type identification and mode selection, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A data processing method, device and apparatus, and a storage medium are disclosed. The data processing method includes obtaining a data packet including multiple raw data; determining a target data type corresponding to each raw datum in the data packet; determining a target data processing mode corresponding to each raw datum based on a data processing requirement for the data packet and the target data type corresponding to each raw datum in the data packet, the data processing requirement including at least one or more of data compression, data storage and data decoding; and performing data processing on each raw datum based on the target data processing mode corresponding to each raw datum. The method can ensure the integrity of compression of mixed data, reduce the bandwidth and storage space occupied by the transmission of the compressed data packet, and can be implemented in a relatively simple way.
