Abstract :
This paper proposes a design for a scalable architecture for low and intermediate level image processing in real-time applications. The architecture is envisioned as a plug-in extension to plain personal workstations or MIMD systems. The main focus points of the architecture design are the scalability, handling of different image sizes, and providing hardware support for a technique named bucket processing that achieves speedup by reducing the amount of processed data
