Abstract
A method for processing video image data including a plurality of different image data types begins by providing tasks to be performed on each different image data type. The image data is divided into a plurality of groups based on the image data type. A set of arithmetic operations required to accomplish the tasks provided for the corresponding image data type is determined. Each arithmetic operation is assigned to one of a plurality of commonly used arithmetic units which performs the arithmetic operation, whereby each image data type is transformed in accordance with the corresponding provided tasks. The transformed image data of each group is combined, completing the processing.
