The paper presents a partitioning and parallelizing programming environment for a novel parallel architecture. This universal embedded accelerator is based on a reconfigurable datapath hardware. The partitioning and parallelizing programming environment accepts C programs and carries out both a profiling-driven host/accelerator partitioning for performance optimization in a first step, and in a second step a resource-driven sequential/structural partitioning of the accelerator source code to optimize the utilization of its reconfigurable resources.
