Multiprocessor System-on-Chip is a promising solution for the high performance Embedded System. This paper is based on an independent research about Hierarchical NoC (Network-on-chip). By integrating 16 ARM cores in the FPGA board, we can bring out the four-channel fade-in and fade-out for real-time streaming media. We present two parallel models for our multiprocessor. One is fine-grained parallelization, with which the speed-up is 7.6, the other module is coarse-grained parallelization, with which the speed-up is higher than 9.2.
