A reconfigurable approach to low cost media processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Future embedded systems will need to process media data at low cost. Products retailing for $300 or less will need to support high performance implementations of media algorithms such as image and video decompression. These products are termed “media appliances”. Their design imposes many constraints on design teams, not only cost and performance, but also engineering development time and hence time to market.
