EDN 2007 DSP Directory
Welcome to the 2007 EDN DSP Directory, which again groups an ever-expanding list of digital-signal-processing resources into a single repository.
The number of companies, devices, cores, and offerings in the directory continues to evolve and grow.
A few companies have dropped out due to the closing of business or spin-offs, but the company roster and table of devices are always expanding.
This steady growth are a testament not only to the...

Design and Implementation of an Ordered Memory Access Architecture
This paper describes a multiprocessor machine for real-time Digital Signal Processing that uses commercial programmable DSP chips.
The architecture is a shared memory, single shared bus parallel processor designed to run signal processing tasks that can be statically scheduled.
The paper is in PDF format.
