In the previous figure, everything runs on the ARM. The application handles I/O and application processing. To process video, image, speech, and audio signals, it uses the VISA APIs provided by the Codec Engine. The Codec Engine, in turn, uses xDM-based codecs. For more information, see the Codec Engine Application Developer's Guide (SPRUE67).

In addition, Linux running on the ARM makes a large number of APIs available to your application, including drivers and timers.
