Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of a system and method for generating an image configured to program a parallel machine from source code are disclosed. One such parallel machine includes a plurality of state machine elements (SMEs) grouped into pairs, such that SMEs in a pair have a common output. One such method includes converting source code into an automaton comprising a plurality of interconnected states, and converting the automaton into a netlist comprising instances corresponding to states in the automaton, wherein converting includes pairing states corresponding to pairs of SMEs based on the fact that SMEs in a pair have a common output. The netlist can be converted into the image and published.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system comprising: a computer arranged to: obtain an automaton representing source code, the automaton including states and transitions between the states; obtain a target device identification, the target device including a hardware element that is a group of state machine elements (SMEs), the group of SMEs including a plurality of SMEs, the hardware element including a restriction on at least one of input or output, the input or output being to or fro…
