Title:

System-Level Exploration and Synthesis through Interoperability with HSL tools

Abstract:

SpaceStudio by Space Codesign is an electronic design software for creating embedded electronics systems at system level. SpaceStudio covers the electronics design flow end-to-end (algorithm/architecture/implementation) and automates co-design of hardware and software components at a higher abstraction. Engineers can rapidly evaluate and optimize hardware and software options in their design architecture to achieve performance and power goals. The final hardware can be generated along with compiled software executables, while taking care of communication details (bus interface, adapters, glue logic, etc.). In this presentation we give an overview of our flow with particular emphasis on the interoperability between SpaceStudio and existing HLS tools in order to perform architectural exploration and co-synthesis of HW/SW embedded systems.
