Description
A key technology enabling fast-paced embedded media processing developments is the high-performance, low-power, small-footprint convergent
processor, a specialized device that combines the real-time control of a traditional microcontroller with the signal processing power
of a DSP. This practical guide is your one-stop shop for understanding how to implement this cutting-edge technology.
You will learn
how to:
* Choose the proper processor for an application.
* Architect your system to avoid problems at the outset.
* Manage your data
flows and memory accesses so that they line up properly
* Make smart-trade-offs in portable applications between power considerations
and computational performance.
* Divide processing tasks across multiple cores.
* Program frameworks that optimize performance without
needlessly increasing programming model complexity.
* Implement benchmarking techniques that will help you adapt a framework to best
fit a target application, and much more!
Covering the entire spectrum of EMP-related design issues, from easy-to-understand explanations
of basic architecture and direct memory access (DMA), to in-depth discussions of code optimization and power management, this practical
book will be an invaluable aid to every engineer working with EMP, from the beginner to the seasoned expert.
Audience
PRIMARY MARKET: Embedded Design Engineers, Electrical Engineers, Computer Engineers, Software Engineers , System Engineers, System Architects,
Project Managers
