“…Fast ME algorithms [1], [2], reduce the complexity and keep the resulting QoS close to that of the Full Search algorithm. Designers of ME architectures concentrate on solving the problem of real-time performance and also on optimizing the hardware resources of Full Search architectures [3], [4], [5], specific fast ME implementations [6], [7], or programmable organizations [8], [9], [10] allowing the choice of the most suitable ME algorithm to each application.…”
