Summary:A high Level signal processing system is presented consisting of the abstract signal processing language SIPROL, a translator system and a general purpose signal processor GPSP. SIPROL is derived from PASCAL including useful extensions on abstract data types. A SIPROL program is compiled into an intermediate language program and then transformed onto various target machine levels by table-driven codegeneration. The hardware modules of the GPSP are derived from the virtual machine associated to the intermediate language. The kernel feature of the system facilitates a flexible transition and migration from software to hardware with respect to the signal processing speed requirements.
