Summary:
This thesis describes a software model of a Linear Predictive Coding (L.P.C.) that is written in the Ada language. The novel feature of this program is that it attempts to execute the maximum possible number of concurrent arithmetic operations in the L.P.C. algorithm. Each arithmetic operation is implemented by an active process which is the "task" construct in the Ada language. The computational part of the algorithm is implemented as a wavefront array of computing tasks. These computational arrays are driven by a driver task which coordinates the flow of data into and out of the computing surfaces. If the inter process communications time between tasks is small, then this model shows a potential for speed-up. If this be the case, one may conclude that this model is an appropriate implementation for a linear predictive coding.
