**1.3.7 Macroblock level parallelism**

There are two ways of exploiting MB-level parallelism: in the spatial domain and/or in the temporal domain. In the spatial domain MB-level parallelism can be exploited if all the intra-frame dependencies are satisfied. In the temporal domainMB-level parallelism can be exploited if, in addition to the intra-dependencies, interframe dependencies are satisfied.
