A method for mapping an algorithm, which is represented by the loop nest into the application specific structure is proposed. The method consists in translating the loop nest into the tensor equation. The tensor equation represents a set of structural solutions. The optimized solution finding consists in solving this equation in integers. The proposed limitations to the parts of the tensors help to derive the pipelined structure and simplify the mapping process. The method is illustrated by the example of the IIR-filter structure synthesis. It is intended for mapping DSP algorithms into FPGA.
