Initial Target Applications

• Image Processing:

  • Compression (e.g. DCT, Motion Estimation, etc..)
  • Filtering (e.g. Median Filtering, Wavelet, etc..)

• Image Understanding:

  • Automatic Target Recognition (e.g. Identification, Classification)
  • Feature Extraction (e.g. Face Recognition)
  • Surveillance (e.g. Template Matching)

• Information Mining

• Encryption (INFOSEC)

Data parallel computation (VLIW, SIMD, vector)

• Stream processing intensive
• High volume of data movement
• Spatial locality of data references dominates
