Abstract :
This paper presents a compilation scheme for a high-level programming environment CT++ that allows to obtain good performance at a low engineering cost. CT++ is based on C++ and has been designed to easily develop algorithms on multi-SIMD parallel computers. We compare our implementation mechanism with others and show that it produces efficient code for low and intermediate level image processing algorithms. The first target architecture is the SYMPHONIE image processing architecture developed at LETI
