Abstract:
Matrix multiplication is the kernel operation used in many image and signal processing applications. This paper demonstrates an effective design for the Matrix Multiplication using Systolic Architecture. This architecture increases the computing speed by using the concept of parallel processing and pipelining into a single concept. The selected platform is a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) device since, in systolic computing, FPGAs can be used as dedicated computers in order to perform certain computations at very high frequencies. The description language used as an entry tool to model the hardware architecture is VERILOG HDL.
