In this paper, we present the PARO design tool for the automated hardware synthesis of massively parallel embedded architectures for given dataflow dominant applications. Key features of PARO are: (1) The design entry in form of a compact and intuitive functional programming language which allows highly parallel implementations. (2) Advanced partitioning techniques are applied in order to balance the trade-offs in cost and performance along with requisite throughputs. This is obtained by distributing computations onto an array of tightly coupled processor elements. (3) We demonstrate the performance of the FPGA synthesized hardware with several selected algorithms from different benchmarks. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
