Research Abstract |
In this research project, we have investigated a hardware accelerator for SVG, which accepts SVG descriptions as streams, analyzes them directly, and translates them into low-level drawing command sequences based on a concurrent pipelining mechanism. This idea has been implemented as a logic circuit, and it has been functionally tested using a logic simulation tool. Furthermore, in order to decode SVG descriptions efficiently by hardware, a software preprocessor which extracts sets of objects that can be concurrently drawn without affecting the final results has been developed.
