    Atmel has launched the DIOPSiS DSP Design Contest 2005
    http://www.atmelroma.it/contest/index.php

    First price is 6000Euro.

    Atmel will be happy to have Universities andd Colleges participating in the
    contest.

    By combining a floating-point VLIW digital signal processor core with an
    ARM7 microcontroller on the same chip, Atmel Corp. adds a new wrinkle in an
    already intensely competitive DSP solutions arena.
    The AT572D740 Diopsis dual processor at 100 MHz delivers 1 billion
    floating-point operations per second (1 GFLOPS) and 1.5 GOPS total. There
    are also lots of peripherals functions and memory embedded on chip. There
    are two SPI serial ports, two USARTS, a timer counter, watchdog, parallel
    I/O port (PIO), peripheral data controller, 8 ADC and 8 DAC interfaces,
    clock generator and interrupt controller".
