Parallel Vector Tile Optimizing Library

Abstract

PVTOL is a C++ library that allows cross-platform software portability without sacrificing high performance. Researchers at MIT Lincoln Laboratory developed the Parallel Vector Tile Optimizing Library (PVTOL) to address a primary challenge faced by developers of embedded signal processing applications: how to write programs at a high level while still achieving performance and preserving the portability of the code across platforms. PVTOL provides a layered architecture that functions as a middleware to isolate application code from hardware code, thus avoiding the need for computation and communication libraries customized to a specific hardware.
