Observatories and telescopes, lasers and X-ray light sources, and other high-throughput instruments generate image data faster than CPU-bound pipelines can process it to support timely decisions. The computational bottleneck is rarely one slow kernel. It’s the whole path from data in the sensor to a decision: read the raw data, match point-spread functions or detector responses, subtract or reduce…
