2.1 Overview
As described in Section 1.4.2, Server Integrator, the Server Integrator
provides a Codec Server to the Engine Integrator. In practice, these roles
may be shared by one person.
There are two configuration steps that the Server Integrator performs:
❏ Configure DSP/BIOS through a Tconf script
❏ Configure "the rest" of the components through XDC configuration of
Framework Components, DSP/BIOS Link, the Codec Engine, etc.
The Server Integrator receives various Codec packages from Algorithm
Creators, as well as packages of other components in the system (for
example Framework Components and Codec Engine).
The Server Integrator uses Codec Engine and its dependent packages
(DSP/BIOS, DSKT2, etc.) along with the XDC Tools to create the
following:
❏ A server configuration file (.cfg)
❏ A server DSP/BIOS configuration file (.tcf)
❏ A simple main() routine to do minimal initialization
❏ A DSP executable created by executing the configuration scripts,
and combining the various packages. This executable is a Codec
Server.
The Server Integrator should also provide a list of the codecs in the
Codec Server.
The Server Integrator hands the DSP executable to the Engine
Integrator, who references it in the Engine configuration file. For example,
the ceapp.cfg file might contain an Engine configuration and the following
line to identify the Codec Server used by the Engine.
