The size and performance of a System LSI depend heavily on the architecture which is chosen. As a result, the architecture design phase is one of the most important steps in the System LSI development process and is critical to the commercial success of a device. In this paper, we propose a C-based variable length and vector pipeline (VVP) architecture design methodology and apply it to the des...

Image processing is an important quantitative technique for neuroscience researchers, but difficult for those who lack experience in the field. In this paper we present a web-based platform that allows an expert to create a brain image processing pipeline, enabling execution of that pipeline even by those biomedical researchers with limited image processing knowledge. These tools are implemente...

The density of commercially available FPGAs (field programmable gate arrays) has increased dramatically in the past several years. Because of this trend, it has become possible to move more and more computations associated with high-performance embedded applications from DSPs (digital signal processors) onto FPGA devices. The potential advantages of utilizing FPGAs instead of DSPs, in this cont...

Characteristics of the signal processing tasks associated with an advanced wireless receiver are well matched to the capabilities offered by CCM technology. Collectively, digital receiver algorithms seem to share the following properties: (a) repetitive operations are performed on huge data sets, (b) the dominant computations are conducive to very deep computational pipelines, (c) a moderate am...

This article describes a pipeline synthesis and optimization technique that increases data throughput of FPGAbased system using minimum pipeline resources. The technique is applied on CAL dataflow language, and designed based on relations, matrices, and graphs. First, the initial as-soon-as-possible (ASAP) and as-late-aspossible (ALAP) schedules, and the corresponding mobility of operators are ...

Pipelines are regarded as the lifelines of national economy most oil producing countries. This is because these pipelines which cover thousands kilometers used to transport large volumes refined and unrefined petroleum products, crude natural gas. These often come under terrorist attacks vandalism can lead pollution problems, theft contents pipeline huge economic loss. In view this, it very nec...
