Checkpoint:

At checkpoint, the parallelization is done on frame processing. There are a lot of frames in a video and using all the CPU threads, a portion of the frames are processed by each thread and output as a video segement. The segments are combined later to generate the final output.

Final:

We achieve a final speedup of 45x with multiprocessing and CUDA acceleration.

Example output:
