Core Structural Hierarchy of the CV EngineThe CV Engine relies on a Multi-Thread Multi-Data (MTMD) architecture rather than a traditional heavy GPU or scalar CPU layout. A typical high-end integration (such as the IMP-X5 implementation) features a scalable array of sub-components:Multiple CV Cores (CVe): Typically structured with multiple independent CV core blocks (e.g., up to 5 parallel CV Engine cores in advanced chips).Sub-Core Processing Units: Each CV core is further broken down internally (commonly 4 processing units per core).Hardware Multi-Threading: Every core supports multiple independent hardware threads (typically 8 hardware threads per core). These can be operated in an independent configuration or structured in a master-slave arrangement to process complex data streams concurrently. Key Architectural Characteristics
