Abstract

This paper introduces a multi-layer MIMD system for computer vision applications. The system is provided with three hierarchical processing layers, each of which is dedicated to one level of processing to create a pipelining effect. Unlike the traditional approach, where a 2D mesh connected array is used, layers in this system are linear arrays. Simplicity and expandability are the main advantages. A prototype of the system is implemented using off-the-shelf components and the performance of the various vision operations is analyzed.
