Abstract: Efficient architectures for multidimensional signal processing have to take into account algorithm requirements and technology bounds. Using a top-down approach, the algorithm is represented by modified Petri nets graphs so that both concurrency and execution control can be formally represented for its implementation on a data-driven machine. A modular architecture based on migrating-data-driven processors (MDDP) is then defined. The architecture of the MDDP is discussed at the functional and logical levels.
Keywords: migrating data-driven architecture (for) multidimensional signal processing; modified net; top-down approach; modular architecture.
