A space/time tradeoff methodology using higher-order functions
Rinse Wester, Jan Kuper · 2013
Large digital signal processing applications like particle filtering require a tradeoff between execution time and area in order to scale on FPGAs. This research focuses on developing a methodology to make this tradeoff based on structure in the mathematical description of the application. Structure is expressed using higher-order functions which are transformed using tradeoff rules to reduce area usage on FPGA.
