Research Abstract |
A new multi-processor architecture has been developed for high-speed and efficient integrated processing of large amount image data such as satellite images. This system architecture is comprised with newly developed processors which are called pipelined MIMD processors, shared memory and multi-stage interconnection network designed for high speed parallel image processing. For the total efficient instruction and data flows under memory access delays commonly taking place on a multi-stage interconnection network machine, the new architecture of pipelied MIMD processor is proposed for this system. In this mechanism, multiple independent instruction sequences can run parallel in each single processor under pipelined controls. It enables wide variety of effective parallel image processings from low level to higher levels. The performance of the system has been evaluated with a variety of simulations and a fully detailed design of the pilot system with this architecture. Their results promises that a high performance processor can be realized in a small sized machine. With the development of the hardware architecture, algorithms for efficient image processing have been also studied. New image processing techniques for an analysis of under-ground radar images, a shape analysis of planar figures, three dimensional shape recognitions, digital image measurements and so on have been developed.
