Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com Nov 23, following open source Radeon Raytracing Analyzer, the AMD GPUOpen team opened up the Brotli-G project again this week. Brotli-G is an open source-based GPU tool that can be used to compress and decompress Brotli.

CTOnews.com learned that currently Brotli is mainly used to compress data such as network assets, and AMD engineers decided to speed up compression / decompression on GPU through open source Brotli-G.

In order for GPU to speed up Brotli compression and decompression, the AMD engineering team modified Brotli's bitstream format. Brotli-G allows parallel Huffman substreams, limits the size of compression blocks, and other simplified bitstream formats to improve GPU performance.

Brotli-G is compiled for Microsoft HLSL shader purposes and allows any graphics card to be used, not just AMD's graphics card lineup. AMD released Brotli-G SDK under the MIT license. Brotli-G SDK contains the implementation of CPU and GPU.

More details about Brotli-G can be found at GPUOpen.com, and the source code has been released on GitHub.
