Abstract

The Power-efficient Imagine stream processor achieves performance densities comparable to those of special-purpose embedded processors. Executing programs mapped to streams and kernels, a single Imagine processor is expected to have a peak performance of 20 Gflops and sustain 18.3 GOPS on MPEG-2 encoding.
