Abstract

A new generation of digital signal processors with communication capabilities offers the possibility to build parallel architectures, so called multi-DSP systems, to overcome the increasing requirements of high performance applications. In this paper these multi-DSP systems are used for the experimental evaluation of specialized computer architectures within the domain of digital signal processing. Integration of these evaluated architectures by means of VLSI techniques leads to special purpose processors. Two case studies in the field of automation and telecommunication are presented in order to show the suitability of multi-DSP systems for the evaluation task
