TBES: Template-Based Exploration and Synthesis of Heterogeneous Multiprocessor Architectures on FPGA

摘要

This article describes TBES, a software end-to-end environment for synthesizing multitask applications on FPGAs. The implementation follows a template-based approach for creating heterogeneous multiprocessor architectures. Heterogeneity stems from the use of general-purpose processors along with custom accelerators. Experimental results demonstrate substantial speedup for several classes of applications.
