Modern High-Level Synthesis: Improving Productivity with a Multi-level Approach
Serena Curzel
Abstract:High-Level Synthesis (HLS) tools simplify the design of hardware accelerators by automatically generating Verilog/VHDL code starting from a general-purpose software programming language. Because of the mismatch between the requirements of hardware descriptions and the characteristics of input languages, HLS tools still require hardware design knowledge and non-trivial design space exploration, which might be an obstacle for domain scientists seeking to accelerate applications written, for example, in Python-ba… Show more
