Begins a series projected to include volumes on such aspects as standards and networks, compressed video over networks, blind equalization and identification, and interprocessor communication strategies. Examines applications of multimedia, programmable and custom architectures for implementing multimedia systems, and arithmetic architectures and design methodologies. Specific topics include system synchronization, the digital versatile disk, wireless digital signal processors, watermarking principles and practices, a finite field arithmetic architecture, advanced systolic design, approaches to estimating power, and exploring a system for custom low- power data storage and transfer.
