Abstract

In this paper, we present a C-to-DFG generation algorithm for coarse-grained reconfigurable processor in multimedia application field. The algorithm exploits the operation parallelism available in the sequential code; maximizes parallelism by loop unrolling and scalar replacement. Loop unrolling increases the size of basic block and fully exposes the intrinsic data parallelism. Scalar replacement eliminates memory access instructions from the basic block under the prerequisite condition of keeping data dependency. For mapping kernels, the three parts of DFGs are corresponding to the three sub-components of reconfigurable unit. The experiments evaluating the degrees of parallelism on DFGs suggest 5.2x to 120.4x speedups on four kernels from common multimedia algorithms. <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1</sup>
