HADES-high-level architecture development and exploration system

Abstract
The authors propose a new approach to high level behavioural synthesis starting from an algorithmic description in Hardware C. The algorithm is compiled into a corresponding data/control flow graph including several optimizations. The behavioural synthesis part of the system performs transformations like loop unrolling, parallelization, etc., whereby the user is supported through a feedback loop. For final structural synthesis an advanced tool based on genetic algorithms is provided. Layout synthesis is assumed to be performed by available tools like the GENESIL silicon compiler.<>
