Automatic Synthesis of Data-Driven Processor Arrays

This paper presents a data-driven processor array architecture, which is able to balance memory access and computation efficiently and is suited to implement high-performance accelerators on FPGAs. A framework for automatic synthesis for data-driven processor array is also proposed. Our framework enable efficient mapping of regular loop programs to processor arrays. Experimental results show the availability of our framework and that FPGA-based design can achieve better performance than general CPU.
