Abstract :
In this paper mappings of several different algorithms from the fields of operating systems and multimedia are discussed, together with the underlying system architecture. The system architecture is based on a board with four FPGA circuits. For the purpose of this research, a simulator of the system has been developed, and different interconnection networks, memory, and bus architectures have been tested. The results of the simulation, as well as analytical results, are presented.
