[Multiprocessor study and design for digital color ultrasonic medical imaging system]

In this paper, the design of a multi-processor for digital color ultrasonic medical imaging system is discussed. It is a shared memory multiprocessor of MIMD architecture. The whole system is devided into several parts according to the complexity of the signal-processing, and each part is allocated a certain duties. Besides, the solving method of multiprocessor's bus conflicting is discussed and an architecture block diagram is given in the paper.
