In this paper we present a design methodology based on high-level synthesis that allows retargeting functional IPs in the form of C++ programs to technology optimized RTL implementations. We will ...

If SystemC is modeling a system at a very high level of abstraction, this executable can be considered the executable specification of the system, which is one of the methodologies that are suggested ...

A programming interface (API) that provides more functionality within one command statement than a lower-level interface. High-level interfaces are designed to enable the programmer to write code ...

It lets the programmer concentrate on the logic of the problem to be solved rather than the intricacies of the machine architecture such as is required with low-level assembly languages.
