Abstract :
Continuing improvements in semiconductor fabrication density are enabling new classes of system-on-a-chip architectures that combine extensive processing logic and high-density memory. Many of the capabilities of these new architectures can be custom tailored to the demands of real-time digital image processing. This paper evaluates several candidate designs, using the criteria of image processing performance, flexibility, manufacturability, and fabrication cost
