TITLE:  NEW TEXT ON VLSI DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING BY PARHI

"VLSI   Digital   Signal   Processing   Systems:    Design    and
Implementation"  by  Keshab  K.  Parhi is now available from John
Wiley & Sons.  The book, ISBN: 0-471-24186-5, combines the fields
of  computer  architecture  theory  and digital signal processing
(DSP)  into   a  comprehensive  single-volume   resource.    This
information  is  needed  fo  a variety of applications, including
video compression, digital audio,  speech  recognition,  portable
video   systems,   and   cable   modems.   Revealing  the  design
methodologies behind the VLSI architectures, the text  shows  how
to customize application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) for
low power consumption and higher efficiency.

Furthermore, the book:

-  Presents  systematic  architectures  transformations  such  as
pipelining,  parallel  processing,  retiming, unfolding, folding,
systolic array design methodology, strength reduction, and  look-
ahead  computation  to  increase  speed and reduce area and power
consumption

- Presents various approaches to binary addition, multiplication,
and  implementation  of  DSP  building  blocks  such  as filters,
transforms and equalizers.  Different  approaches  to  arithmetic
such   as   carry-save,   redundant,   bit-serial,  digit-serial,
distributed  arithmetic,  canonic  signed  digit  arithmetic  are
described.

- Presents a variety of approaches to analysis,  estimation,  and
reduction  of power consumption in order to help designers extend
battery life

- Includes several application-driven problems at the end of each
chapter

- The author is an expert in the field and  has  written  several
books,  taught  several  graduate-level  classes,  and  served on
several IEEE committees.

The intended audience includes: VLSI system designers, electrical
engineers,  computer scientists, computer architecture designers,
circuit designers, digital signal processing algorithm designers,
computer    programmers    in   the   multimedia   and   wireless
communications industries.
