An algorithm for component selection in performance optimized scheduling

Abstract
The authors describe a novel algorithm that combines the hardware scheduling and component selection phases for high level synthesis. The algorithm improves on previous work in scheduling, by being able to simultaneously select components from a given library. This enlarges the design space, resulting in better optimized designs. Experimental results on the elliptic filter benchmark demonstrate that exploiting all available components in the library results in designs with smaller area compared to designs produced by scheduling with a single implementation for each component type.
