Bhattacharyya Co-Author of New Book on DSP Software Synthesis

Associate Professor Dr. Shuvra Bhattacharyya (ECE/UMIACS) has co-authored a new book with Dr. Praveen K. Murthy titled Memory Management for Synthesis of DSP Software.

The book explores the challenges of programming in the memory-restricted environment of digital signal processing (DSP). Bhattacharyya and Murthy offer extensive research on minimizing memory requirements during the synthesis of DSP software from data flow representations. The book is illustrated throughout to clarify mathematical concepts.

This marks the second book collaboration by Bhattacharyya and Murthy, who is a researcher at Fujitsu Labs of America. In 1996, the two co-authored Software Synthesis from Dataflow Graphs, with Edward A. Lee.

Memory Management for Synthesis of DSP Software was published in March 2006 by CRC Press of the Taylor & Francis Group, ISBN #0849337526. More information can be found online at the CRC Press website.
