Abstract
The primary purpose of this chapter is to discuss image-processing implementations on desktop computers (PCs) and special-purpose hardware. The preliminary discussions apply to both kinds of systems. Although most readers will be more familiar with the former, they are asked to keep both possibilities in mind.
“Will you walk a little faster?” said a whiting to a snail. “There’s a porpoise close behind us, and he’s treading on my tail.” Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Lewis Carroll
