A performance-scalable ISDP (Interactive Sensor Data Processing) workstation, accelerated with commercial PCI multiprocessor cards, is described and a WSI Massively data-Parallel Processor (MdPP) device is proposed for the replacement of its VLSI processors. Delivering 60 GOPS for 16-bit integer multiply-accumulate operations, a WSI-FPGA implementation of the reconfigurable device is shown to be better suited to ISDP applications and at least two orders-of-magnitude more cost-effective.
