Hardware for Parallel Image Processing
3,5 ECTS
Aim: These lectures are a continuation to “Computer Architecture” (given in common core), and emphasizes on parallelisation issues in a hardware standpoint.
Content:
- Introduction to parallelism (SIMD, MIMD, PRAM models. Message passing based architectures. Introduction to PVM and MPI)
- Intraprocessor parallelism (RISC, CISC, superscalar, VLIW, SoC architectures)
- Multicomponent parallelism (multi-DSP, FPGA)
