Abstract

In this paper we present new VLSI architectures for the arithmetic encoding and decoding of multilevel images. In these algorithms the speed is limited by their recursive natures and the arithmetic and memory access operations. They become specially critical in the case of decoding. In order to reduce the cycle length we propose working with two executions of the algorithm which alternate in the use of the pipelined hardware with a minimum increase in its cost.
