Abstract

Describes a reconfigurable computer engine called the Data-Flow Functional Computer (DFFC), which is dedicated to rapid prototyping of real-time vision automata. The computer consists of a regular 3D array of very coarse grain application-specific FPGAs, called the 'field-programmable operator array' (FPOA). Each FPOA includes two configurable data paths and ten input/output ports. Specific development tools allow easy and efficient use of the computer. A high-level description (in a functional language) is compiled into a DFFC configuration using an operator library. Several significant applications (connected component labelling, nonlinear filtering, coloured object tracking) have been implemented using our tools. An environment for automatic derivation of vision automata from a DFFC configuration is currently under development.<>

用于实时视觉自动机原型的可重构计算引擎

描述了一种可重构的计算机引擎，称为数据流功能计算机(DFFC)，它致力于实时视觉自动机的快速原型设计。该计算机由一个常规的3D阵列组成，该阵列由非常粗粒度的专用fpga组成，称为“现场可编程操作员阵列”(FPOA)。每个FPOA包括两个可配置的数据路径和十个输入/输出端口。特定的开发工具允许轻松有效地使用计算机。使用操作符库将高级描述(用函数式语言)编译成DFFC配置。几个重要的应用(连接组件标签，非线性滤波，彩色对象跟踪)已经使用我们的工具实现。一个从DFFC配置自动派生视觉自动机的环境目前正在开发中。
