Abstract :
The use of a heterogeneous multiple-SIMD (M-SIMD) architecture with image-based measurements and optimal (Kalman) estimators for the analysis of image sequences is illustrated. The architecture integrates SIMD and MIMD processing paradigms, combining heterogeneity of processor types matched to the computation at each level and operational autonomy within an SIMD array. It is suited to real-time simultaneous data parallel (iconic) and control parallel (numeric) processing
