Summary

• Application-Driven Architecture Synthesis describes the state-of-the-art in architectural synthesis for complex real-time processing. In order to deal with the stringent timing requirements and the intricacies of complex real-time signal and data processing, target architecture styles and target application domains have been adopted to make the synthesis approach feasible.
• These approaches are also heavily application-driven which is illustrated by many realistic demonstrations, used as examples throughout the book. The focus is on domains where application-specific solutions are attractive such as significant parts of audio, telecom, instrumentation, speech, robotics, medical and automotive processing, image and video processing, TV, multi-media, radar, and sonar.
• Application-Driven Architecture Synthesis is of interest to both academia and to senior design engineers and CAD managers in industry. It provides an excellent overview of what capabilities to expect from future practical design tools and includes an extensive bibliography.
