Abstract

The paper presents a two level hardware/software partitioning strategy of a co-design framework (CoDe-X), using an Xputer as accelerator with reconfigurable datapath. CoDe-X accepts C-programs and carries out both, profiling-driven host/accelerator partitioning and (2nd level) resource-parameter-driven sequential/structural partitioning of the accelerator source code to optimize the utilization of its reconfigurable datapath resources.
