Abstract :
This paper describes the Sarnoff Engine, a 1.6 TeraFLOP, ral-time, high definition, video and image processing computer. It is a second generation, scalable, linear array, multi-user, MIMD architecture focused on the applications of real-time high definition video and image processing (data compression encoders and decoders), 3D/4D data visualization, and neural network development
