OPSILA, is a description given of a general-purpose parallel architecture with two different forms of parallelism: the well-known SIMD (single-instruction, multiple data shown), a synchronous form of parallelism; and SPMD (single program, multiple data stream), which is an asynchronous mode. It is shown that OPSILA is efficient for a wide variety of image algorithms including low and high level processing. The efficiency of OPSILA is demonstrated for the low-level algorithms, through the implementation of a set of typical operations: local (convolution), global (histogram), and geometric corrections.
