Barco and Cradle Technologies Partner to Provide World-Class Image and Video Processing IP and Design Services.SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Cradle Technologies, Inc., a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. delivering high-performance and flexible multiprocessor DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive (MDSP MDSP Maryland State Police MDSP Meter Data Service Provider MDSP Mobile Device Synchronization Protocol MDSP Multirate Digital Signal Processing MDSP Main Digital Signal Processor MDSP Mobile Data Synchronization Protocol ) platform solutions for real-time video, audio and imaging applications, today announced that it has partnered with Barco Silex, Barco's center of competence for micro-electronic design, providing System-on-Chip (SoC) and IP focused on image and video-processing markets. Barco Silex joins Cradle Technologies Application Partner (CTAP CTAP California Technology Assistance Project CTAP California Telephone Access Program CTAP Career Transition Assistance Plan (for US Federal employees) CTAP Clear to Auscultation & Percussion ) program further demonstrating Cradle's commitment to extending its technology-leading multi-processor DSP (MDSP) products and support to customers developing leading-edge video products. "Barco's renowned image and video processing Video processing techniques are used in video codecs, video players and other devices. For example—commonly only design and video processing is different in TV sets of different manufactures. capabilities provide flexible and integrated solutions with some of the finest picture quality," said Patrick Soheili, senior vice president of sales at Cradle Technologies. "Cradle's MDSP solutions deliver the industry's best price and performance processing solution for the development of complex video and imaging applications. Together, both companies will be able to provide customers with high-quality video products," said Soheili. "As a leading design house committed to providing high-quality hardware, software and system design services, we understand the importance of strong partnerships to deliver complete and tailored designs for our customers. With its on-chip multiple DSP and RISC RISC in full Reduced Instruction Set Computing Computer architecture that uses a limited number of instructions. RISC became popular in microprocessors in the 1980s. cores and its integrated IO processor, MDSP platform has the performance of multiple DSP's and IO devices at the cost of a single chip. Cradle's MDSP's, together with our expertise in image & video processing, provide an added value Added value in financial analysis of shares is to be distinguished from value added. Used as a measure of shareholder value, calculated using the formula:
