NVIDIA: High-Level Synthesis in Agile System-on-Chip Flows: Overview and Techniques

Catapult High-Level Synthesis has been successfully employed within NVIDIA for multiple generations of system-on-chip research demonstrations. This talk provides a brief overview of NVIDIA Research’s use of Catapult HLS and highlights some useful features and flows of the Connections library, such as the ability to back-annotate SystemC simulations to identify and fix performance bugs.
