Most emerging applications in imaging and machine learning must perform immense amounts of computation while holding to strict limits on energy and power. To meet these goals, architects are building increasingly specialized compute engines tailored for these specific tasks. The resulting computer systems are heterogeneous, containing multiple processing cores with wildly different execution models. Unfortunately, the cost of producing this specialized hardware-and the software to control it-is astronomical. Moreover,...

About the Author

Steven Bell is a Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University, where he's building camera platforms as a vehicle to explore the challenge of rapidly creating high-performance hardware/software systems. As part of his Ph.D. work, he has developed imaging algorithms, written kernel drivers, and wrangled FPGA tools. His interests include image processing and computational photography, embedded software and systems, and teaching these topics to others. He received a B.S....
