Abstract :
A 68020-based multiprocessor image processing system has been developed which is adaptable, flexible, extendable, modular, and fast. With the present four-processor system, it is possible to decode approximately 10 frames/s, where each frame contains 16384 pixels, using an image sequence compression algorithm developed by the authors. System components and operation are described along with present system performance; and areas for future improvements are considered.<>
