Abstract
The issues and problems posed by heterogeneous computing are discussed. They include design of algorithms for applications, partitioning and mapping of application tasks, interconnection requirements, and the design of programming environments. The use of heterogeneous computing in image understanding is reviewed. An example vision task is presented, and the different types of parallelism used in the example are identified.<>
