Synchronous Dataflow, a subset of dataflow, has proven to be a good match for specifying DSP programs. Because of the limited amount of memory in embedded DSPs, a key problem duri...
High level synthesis tools transform an algorithmic description to a register transfer language (RTL) description of the hardware. The algorithm behavior is typically described in...
Research in communication networks has shown that the Internet architecture is not sufficient for modern communication areas such as the interconnection networks of super computing...
There is an increasing research interest in system level design languages which can carry designers from specification to implementation of system-on-a-chip. Unfortunately, two of...
There has been a proliferation of block-diagram environments for specifying and prototyping DSP systems. These include tools from academia like Ptolemy [3], and GRAPE [7], and com...
