Abstract

Pervasive video processing in future Ambient Intelligence environments sets new challenges in embedded system design. In particular, very high performance requirements have to be combined with the constraints of deeply embedded systems, frequently changing operating modes, and low-cost, high-volume production. By leveraging upon the key properties of the application domain, we devised a computation model, a hardware template, and a programming approach which provide a natural mapping from application requirements to a complete system solution. Our approach enables the direct exploitation of concurrency and regularity in achieving the combined challenge of adaptability, performance, and efficiency.
