Using a PIM interface for improving computer medical image processing abilities.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Biomedical engineers in particular require fast and powerful data processing systems to process computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans and other medical imaging technologies. However, current computer data processing technologies are unable to satisfy such requirements. A promising approach to addressing these limitations is processing in memory (PIM). Unfortunately, several issues, such as the compatibility and interconnection of PIM with legacy systems, still remain.

Objective

This paper proposes a standard memory bus-based PIM interface for medical image processing and a PIM platform. The proposed PIM interface can overcome problems of compatibility with legacy systems.

Methods

We will adapt an embedded system based on a commercial
