Changes in DSP Technology—Hardware and Software

The last decade has witnessed significant advances in DSP hardware technology, yielding the unprecedented levels of price/performance, power dissipation, and silicon integration which characterize today’s DSP devices; and all indicators remain positive that DSP hardware capabilities will continue to rise at comparable rates for many years to come. By contrast, DSP software technology has progressed at a somewhat slower pace during the past decade, evidenced in part by the fact that software now represents as much as 80% of the total engineering costs incurred when developing applications for ...
