Abstract: | Real-time image analysis requires the use of massively parallel machines. Conventional parallel machines consist of an array of identical processors organized in either single instruction multiple data (SIMD) or multiple instruction multiple data (MIMD) configurations. Machines of this type generally only operate effectively on parts of the image analysis problem. SIMD on the low level processing and MIMD on the high level processing. In this paper we describe the Warwick Pyramid Machine, an architecture consisting of both SIMD and MIMD parts in a multiple-SIMD (MSIMD) organization which can operate effectively at all levels of the image analysis problem. |
