Abstract
This chapter looks at the design of multiprocessor systems-on-chips (MPSoCs) for video applications. Video and multimedia require huge amounts of computational power and real-time performance. Furthermore, video algorithms are still evolving; hence, multiprocessor architectures must be designed for flexibility as well as performance. One of our case studies is the Philips Nexperia™ architecture, a leading commercial MPSoC framework for set-top box, digital television and connected home applications. We also consider other applications, including real-time gesture recognition.
