The design of a multiprocessor platform based on Texas Instrument DSPs and its application to the problem of real-time modelling of the human vocal tract is described in this book. The need for a multiprocessor system is justified and various methods of inter-processor communication are explored. Solutions are also given for the problems associated with the division of the modelling task amongst the processors in the system. Finally, the design and implementation of the system which was used to model the human vocal tract in real time is described.
