The MathStar Field Programmable Object Array (FPOA) is an example of this category, offering field re-programmability, 1 GHz performance, a 400-object array, high-speed I/O, and a streamlined design ...

Over time, the processing power of computing engines increases for the same price, enabling more microphone arrays to connect to a single computing engine, thereby reducing the cost of multiple ...

In the previous article, “Massively Parallel Processing Arrays (MPPAs) for Embedded HD Video and Imaging – Part 1”, we provided an overview of the various types of architectures used to meet the needs ...

Multi-mode sensor processing has traditionally been implemented using DSPs or FPGAs, but their lack of run-time programmability and re-configurability forces the worst-case design for each type of ...

Project AppleSeed is a way to transform a cluster of Power Macs into a parallel processing system. Viktor Decyk, Dean Dauger, and Pieter Kokelaar of UCLA’s Department of Physics created their ...

Editor's Note: This is the first of two articles discussing how Massively Parallel Processing Arrays (MPPAs) can be used to accelerate high-performance embedded system applications. In this article, ...
