Design Exploration for FPGA-Based Multiprocessor Architecture: JPEG Encoding Case Study
Jason Wu, John A. Williams, Neil W. Bergmann, PETER W. SUTTON · 2009
This paper presents a system level design flow which enables rapid design space exploration and a verification tool to assist a designer to identify an FPGA-based MPSoC for stream-oriented application. The case study, JPEG encoding, illustrates how the tool exploits the task-level parallelism and produces a suitable architectural design, binding and scheduling algorithm while satisfying physical constraints.
