Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Recently, image applications are frequently executed using mobile devises, where executions with high speed at low cost are demanded. Typically, in image applications, procedures with high complexity are executed sequentially. In this study, we conducted an experiment to execute such an image application by a dynamically reconfigurable processor (DRP) and compared the processing speed with general purpose processors. We took a sequential application of median and Laplacian filters as an example. Results revealed that a DRP implementation executes 70 and 45 times faster than Celeron and Core2Duo processors, respectively. We also discussed area, energy, and development costs when using DRP, and compared the costs with FPGA and ASIC. When implementing image applications consisting of serial procedures, DRP is effective when the procedures are complex and available resources are limited.
