I am hardware engineer, I have no Idea about DSP. Can some one point me
to some good reading material for a starter ?
Thanks

Both links should keep you plenty busy for a while. I'd suggest that the
reading order is reversed (depending on your background).
Also, it would help quite a bit if you are able to do small projects to
accompany your reading. The small projects will help you retain what you
learn a lot better and also provide insight into implementation. You could
buy yourself a DSP starter kit (or eval board) - TI and Analog Devices are
the 2 most common DSPs that most people start with. If you search the Google
groups, you'll find several specific DSP starter kit recommendations from
people in this group. You will probably get bogged down a little learning
the tools and the chip but you are going to have to do that anyways (unless
you want to implement DSP functions in HW - in which case you'd better wait
for Ray Andraka's book).

I guess it depends on what Neil is interested in when he says DSP:
"digital signal processing" or "digital signal processors"?
If the latter, then starter kits are the way to go. Also, downloading
and reading processor data sheets and manuals, while tedious, is the
only way to get a solid understanding of the different DSP
architectures.
However, if the former, I would suggest getting some software package
such as Scilab or Octave (both for free) for high level implementation
(with graphical debugging) of signal processing techniques. Often,
programms taking days in assembler or C are just three function calls
using these packages. If you have spare money, Matlab is the industry
standard. I prefer Mathematica, although its signal and image
processing library is not as extensive.

For now I am interested in "digital signal processing", eventually I
might want to do some hardware implementation after understanding what
I want to try out.
Thanks a lot again guys.
