Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
In addition to the above, joint research will be undertaken to further develop new methodologies for the design of advanced Digital Signal and Image Processing chips. This will build on QUB's recent research which has shown how systems can be rapidly produced through the use of parameterisable and synthesisable architectural libraries, captured in VHDL. Methodologies for mapping DSP operations from system level down onto silicon is an area where Professor Kung is and acknowledged authority, having been responsible for developing techniques for deriving VLSI DSP architectures from Signal Flow Graph representations. One of the aims of this project will be to re-examine these methods in the light of recent developments. The ultimate aim of this research is to produce methods which would allow DSP systems/algorithm engineers, with little or no specialist silicon design experience, to efficiently map their requirements onto hardware (both ASIC and PLD/FPGA). The intention is to do this in a manner that resembles the way algorithms are currently developed in software using MATLAB or Alta's SPW tool.
