Mapping of an Automated Target Recognition Application from a Graphical Software Environment to FPGA-Based Reconfigurable Hardware

چکیده
A significant obstacle to the widespread adoption of FPGAbased configurable computing hardware has been the difficulty of mapping applications onto this hardware. We are developing a software development system called CHAMPION to automate the process of mapping applications in the graphical software environment Khoros to multiple FPGA-based architectures. The work described here consists of the development of requirements for the library primitives used by CHAMPION and the manual mapping of an automatic target recognition algorithm onto FPGA hardware.

متن کاملJHDL - An HDL for Reconfigurable Systems
JHDL is a design tool for reconfigurable systems that allows designers to express circuit organizations that dynamically change over time in a natural way, using only standard programming abstractions found in objectoriented languages. JHDL manages FPGA resources in a manner that is similar to the way object-oriented languages manage memory: circuits are treated as distinct objects and a circui...
متن کاملInterface Synthesis using Memory Mapping for an FPGA Platform
Several system-on-chip (SoC) platforms have recently emerged that use reconfigurable logic (FPGAs) as a programmable co-processor to reduce the computational load on the main processor core. We present an interface synthesis approach that enables us to do hardware-software codesign for such FPGA-based platforms. The approach is based on a novel memory mapping algorithm that maps data used by bo...
