In the last few years a number of start-up companies have announced massively parallel processors for embedded DSP applications. With their arrays of processing elements, these processors target ...

Modern video-processing systems, like multichannel digital video recorders/analyzers used in security systems, run multiple applications such as image processing, compression and content analysis ...

Calculating formulae and information for toolpaths for larger and more complex parts is one of the advantages of parallel processing, and one of the advances of Delcam’s latest version CAM software, ...

For example, an engineer may develop a real-time embedded control system at the same time as its human-machine interface. Maybe the system also has a computation-intensive task such as high-speed ...

So I was trying to have a quiet hangover and mix with the good and the great of the industry the other morning at yet another technical meeting. I think I would have been quiet happy to thumb through ...

The Pilot single-axis motion processor family is now available in a parallel interface version. Communicating with the host processor via a bi-directional, 16-bit parallel data port, the new Parallel ...

Micron’s Automata Processor (AP) uses a unique parallel processing technique that exploits the company’s memory technology (Fig. 1). The parallel processor is similar to an FPGA and a content ...

SEMICONDUCTOR firms make integrated circuits with critical dimensions that are shrinking in leaps and bounds. With chip sizes down to 130 nanometres (1nm is a billionth of a metre) and heading fast ...

You can't swing a dead cat six inches these days without hitting a a new Kickstarter project. When it works, Kickstarter is a great way to tie niche ideas or new concepts directly to people interested ...

Sony has been hit with yet another patent infringement lawsuit. This one targets the Cell processor, the brains of the PlayStation 3. A company that claims to be located in Newport Beach, CA, Parallel ...
