C for DSP

Digital signal processing is one domain where optimization is king. That's why DSP code has been written in assembly for ages. But in the real world, hand-tuned assembly can be a liability if staff and time resources are limited. So there's a growing need to keep DSP code written in C. This allows you to have more time to experiment with algorithms. Alan Anderson begins a five-part series on DSP programming in C with "Programming and Optimizing C Code: Part 1."
