            Abstract : 
The integer cosine transform (ICT) has been shown to be an alternative to the DCT for image processing. This paper presents a parallel-pipelined architecture of an 8×8 ICT(I0, 9, 6, 2, 3, 1) processor for image compression. The main characteristics of this architecture are: high throughput, low latency, reduced internal storage and 100% efficiency in all computational elements. The processor has been designed in 0.35-μm CMOS technology with an operational frequency of 300 MHz.
