Performance Analysis of the DAP(Trademark)-610 (Active Memory Technology's Distributed Array Processor) as Data Compression Processor in a Real-Time Remids System

摘要

An analysis of the DAP 610 (Active Memory Technology's Distributed Array Processor) was undertaken to determine if the DAP-610 is capable of functioning as a major system component in a real-time processor. The evaluated functions required of the DAP-610 include: a direct link to an external multispectral sensor sending 16-bit data at a 1.65MHz rate, demultiplexing and reformatting of sensor data, data compression processing, feature extraction, VMEbus input/output for communication with other system components, and out of high resolution image data for display. The DAP-610 was found to be capable of all these functions. However, processing time estimates available are insufficient to verify that the implementations will operate within the real time constraints. (kr)
