Synthesis and optimization of high-level stream programs
(2013) The 2013 Electronic System Level Synthesis Conference- Abstract
- In this paper we address the problem of translating high-level stream programs, such as those written in MPEG's RVC-CAL dataflow language, into implementations in programmable hardware. Our focus is on two aspects: sufficient language coverage to make synthesis available for a large class of programs, and methodology and tool support providing analysis and guidance to improve and optimize an initial implementation. Our main results are (1) a synthesis tool that for the first time translates a complete and unmodified MPEG reference implementation into a working hardware description, and (2) a suite of profiling and analysis tools that analyze the structure of computation weighted by data obtained from the synthesis process, and accurately...
