Abstract
This dissertation present a chip with Multi-Access Memory System(MAMS) and parallel processor for 16 Processing Elements of image processing purpose. MAMS is a kind of parallel access memory system and can simultaneously access to random pixel datas with eight types. It is possible to set a interval about pixel datas to access, too. The parallel processor built-in MAMS actually has been realized in 2003 but its performance fell short of a real time process for high-definition images. I designed a improved parallel processing system by means of addition and expansion of Memory Modules and Processing Elements of previous one. It is feasible to perform a Morphological Closing at the speed of 3 times of the previous one and 6 times of serial system.
