Hydra: An Accelerator for Real-Time Edge-Aware Permeability Filtering in 65nm CMOS

Many modern video processing pipelines rely on edge-aware (EA) filtering methods. However, recent high-quality methods are challenging to run in real-time on embedded hardware due to their computational load. To this end, we propose an area-efficient and real-time capable hardware implementation of a high quality EA method. In particular, we focus on the recently proposed permeability filter (P...

Design and Implementation of Real-Time EP80579 Based Embedded System

With the advances in integration of different units such as I/O controllers and network interfaces in a single chip, Intel introduced the low power EP80579 embedded processor. This processor is the first IA based system-on-chip (SoC) with an IA-32 processor core, North and South Bridges, and integrated Accelerator and network interface. In this paper we will show main steps to design a real-tim...

Real-Time Building Information Modeling (BIM) Synchronization Using Radio Frequency Identification Technology and Cloud Computing System

The online observation of a construction site and processes bears significant advantage to all business sector. BIM is the combination of a 3D model of the project and a project-planning program which improves the project planning model by up to 6D (Adding Time, Cost and Material Information dimensions to the model). RFID technology is an appropriate information synchronization tool between the...

A Gaussian Probability Accelerator for SPHINX 3

Accurate real-time speech recognition is not currently possible in the mobile embedded space where the need for natural voice interfaces is clearly important. The continuous nature of speech recognition coupled with an inherently large working set creates significant cache interference with other processes. Hence real-time recognition is problematic even on high-performance general-purpose plat...
