"Moving technology from ideal research conditions into real-life applications is always a challenge. The computing and timing issues involved in signal processing make it an especially difficult transition. Real-Time Signal Processing covers the entire process of implementing signal processing algorithms, from real-time concepts to multiprocessors and tradeoff analyses, and it provides a toolkit of hardware and software computing elements. This book walks through the entire system design process, from requirements development through life-cycle systems engineering, project management, integration, testing, and maintenance."--BOOK JACKET.
