Generator-based Design Flows for Reconfigurable Computing: A Tutorial on Tool Integration using FLAME
نویسندگان
چکیده
High-performance design flows for FPGAs often rely on module generators to implement fast sub-circuits. However, the very flexibility of current generator systems makes their automatic use by synthesis and floorplanning steps difficult. We present a common model to express generator capabilities and design characteristics to client tools. Examples show how an active query/reply scheme supports a stepwise refinement by incrementally tightening constraints to narrow down the range of possible solutions.

On Tool Integration in High-Performance FPGA Design Flows
High-performance design flows for FPGAs often rely on module generators to counter coarse logic-block granularity and limited routing resources, However, the very flexibility of current generator systems complicates their integration and automatic use in the entire tool flow. As a solution to these problems, we have introduced FLAME, a common model to express generator capabilities and module c...
متن کاملImplementation of VlSI Based Image Compression Approach on Reconfigurable Computing System - A Survey
Image data require huge amounts of disk space and large bandwidths for transmission. Hence, imagecompression is necessary to reduce the amount of data required to represent a digital image. Thereforean efficient technique for image compression is highly pushed to demand. Although, lots of compressiontechniques are available, but the technique which is faster, memory efficient and simple, surely...
