Digital signal processing (DSP) covers a wide range of applications such as signal acquisition, analysis, transmission, storage, and synthesis. Special attention is needed for the VLSI (very large scale integration) implementation of high performance DSP systems with examples from video and radar applications. This book provides basic architectures for VLSI implementations of DSP tasks covering architectures for application specific circuits and programmable DSP circuits. It fills an important gap in the literature by focusing on the transition from algorithms specification to architectures...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Workshop on Power and Timing Modeling, Optimization and Simulation, PATMOS 2000, held in Gottingen, Germany in September 2000.
The 33 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in sections on RTL power modeling, power estimation and optimization, system-level design, transistor level design, asynchronous circuit design, power efficient technologies, design of multimedia processing applications, adiabatic design and arithmetic modules, and...

Mit den Fortschritten in der Mikroelektronik wachst auch der Bedarf an VLSI-Realisierungen von digitalen Signalverarbeitungseinheiten. Die zunehmende Komplexitat der Signalverarbeitungsverfahren fuhrt insbesondere bei Signalen mit hoher Quellenrate auf Anforderungen, die nur durch spezielle Schaltungsstrukturen erfullt werden konnen. Dieses Buch behandelt Schaltungstechniken und Architekturen zur Erzielung hoher Durchsatzraten von Algorithmen der Signalverarbeitung. Neben alternativen Schaltungstechniken zur Realisierung der Basisoperationen, Addition, Multiplikation und Division werden...
