Joseph A. Sgro, chief executive officer of Alacron, examined the impact of future microprocessors on machine-vision technology. He presented the tabulated performances of the latest microprocessors from Analog Devices, Intel Corp., Philips Semiconductor, and Texas Instruments functioning in a high-input/output application, a balanced input/output and computational application, and a demanding input/output and computational application. These applications illustrated how memory bandwidth and processor performance limit multiprocessor system performance.
