Programming parallel processors isn't easy, especially when the number of processing elements is large. No single technique applies to all situations. But in its Storm-1 architecture, Stream ...

Over a decade ago, fixed-point digital signal processor implementations became available, enabling easy software programmability for different DSP algorithms. Those early DSPs offered limited ...

The processor's SIMD portion enables one instruction to be simultaneously executed by a number (two, four, eight, or 16) of DSP processors called parallel datapath units.

Specialized programming frameworks have arisen to combat the chaos, says Steve Roddy, director at Cadence Design Systems, which licenses domain-specific processor (DSP) designs.

The life cycle of a DSP is relatively short as companies are continuously moving to more powerful processors, with more computational capabilities and higher speeds. Switching from one DSP ...

--CEVA, Inc., the leading licensor of wireless connectivity and smart sensing technologies, today announced the unveiling of the world's most powerful DSP architecture, the Gen4 CEVA-XC. This new ...

Programming processors is becoming more complicated as more and different types of processing elements are included in the same architecture. While systems architects may revel in the number of ...

As a result, Intel can build a single chip that includes an XScale processor core, flash memory and a MicroSignal Architecture DSP core. Thanks to the clock speed of the XScale chip--up to 1GHz ...

Intel and Analog Devices Tuesday announced a new digital signal processor (DSP) architecture designed to pave the way for the next generation of mobile computing devices. Called Micro Signal ...
