Improving the computational speed in embedded image processing systems has been of great technical significance. The time elapsed for inter-modular carry propagation in binary arithmetic adversely affect the computational speed and power efficiency of such systems. Different from binary arithmetic, the residue number system has the capability of modular arithmetic and it is devoid of the inter-modular carry propagation. This article reviews image processing applications making use of the residue number system based arithmetic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
