Title :
Architecture of a broadband mediaprocessor
Author_Institution :
MicroUnity Sys. Eng. Inc., USA
Abstract :
A broadband mediaprocessor is a general-purpose computer system which reaches the goal of communicating and processing at broadband rates using compiled software rather than special-purpose hardware. MicroUnity´s architectural family of broadband mediaprocessors reduce costs of broadband communications systems and enable deployment of new communications services by transmitting software through digital networks.
