“…Pursuant to the overhead paid for the flexibility, processors are rather inefficient regarding performance and power consumption [11]. At the other end of the spectrum is application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), which contain dedicated circuits specialised to a particular set of functions.…”

“…At the other end of the spectrum is application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), which contain dedicated circuits specialised to a particular set of functions. Thus, the architecture is optimally suited for the functions at hand which is the reason of ASICs are efficient regarding performance and power consumption, but they lack flexibility, as no programmable resources are provided [11].…”

“…This forces a redesign and a refabrication of any part of the chip which requires modification. This is an expensive process, especially when one considers the difficulties in replacing ASICs in a large deployed system [11]. The main disadvantages of this approach can be summarised as shown in Figure 1.8.…”

A AbstractRecently, the more widespread use of three-dimensional (3-D) imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), and ultrasound (US) have generated a massive amount of volumetric data. These have provided an impetus to the development of other applications, in particular telemedicine and teleradiology. In these fields, medical image compression is important since both efficient storage and transmission of data In summary, this research is tackling the issues of massive 3-D medical volumes data that requires compression as well as hardware implementation to accelerate the slowest operations in the system. Results obtained also reveal a significant achievement in terms of the architecture efficiency and applications performance.

“…Reconfigurable hardware, especially field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are widely used in image and signal processing applications from simple low-resolution and low-bandwidth applications to very high-resolution and high-bandwidth [1]. Owing to its massive parallelism capabilities, multimillion gate counts and special low power packages, FPGA has attracted a great deal of research and development.…”
