VLSI implementations of image and video multimedia processing systems
P. Pirsch, H.-J. Stolberg · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology · 1998
An overview of very large scale integrated (VLSI) implementations of multimedia processing systems is given with particular emphasis on architectures for image and video processing. Alternative design approaches are discussed for dedicated image and video processing circuits and for programmable multimedia processors. Current design examples of dedicated and programmable architectures are reviewed, and the techniques employed to improve the performance for multimedia processing are therein identified. Future trends in multimedia processing systems are anticipated with respect to current developments in emerging image and video multimedia applications.
