Abstract

This chapter presents a High Level Synthesis (HLS) flow dedicated to intensive signal processing applications. Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is the skeleton of this flow. The benefits of extending this software technology to hardware design are used to solve major difficulties encountered by usual HLS flows. Both users and designers of the flow take advantage of the MDE methodology, leading to a concrete and effective advancement in the HLS research domain. The flow is automated from UML specifications to VHDL code generation. It has been successfully evaluated for the design of a hardware accelerator dedicated to signal processing.
