Abstract :
An overview on VLSI architectures for multimedia processing is given. Dedicated as well as programmable approaches are discussed. Dedicated implementations are derived utilizing specific properties of the target algorithms. For programmable processors, a number of architectural measures to increase multimedia processing performance are identified, and design examples of existing processors are reviewed. Future trends in multimedia signal processing and their implications on VLSI architecture design are anticipated
