IEEE Computer, October 2007


The Embedded Systems Landscape
What makes high-performance embedded computing so difficult is not just the performance levels but achieving that performance in the face of two major requirements: real time and low power.

Using DaVinci Technology for Digital Video Devices
It's not practical for one SoC processor to fit all equipment and meet today's aggressive performance, power, and cost targets. The DaVinci integrated portfolio of processors, software, and tools offers support for developing a broad spectrum of optimized digital video equipment.

Software-Defined Radio Prospects for Multistandard Mobile Phones
A multitude of existing and evolving cell phone standards, coupled with the need to react quickly to market requirements, is radically changing the system architect's task. Two alternative approaches to classic ASIC-centered and DSP-assisted designs have emerged: reconfigurable architectures and DSP-centered and accelerator-assisted architectures.
