Codesign Analysis of a Computer Graphics Application

Abstract

This paper describes a codesign case study where a computer graphics application is examined with the intention to speed up its execution. The application is specified as a C program, and is characterized by the lack of a simple compute-intensive kernel. The hardware/software partitioning is based on information obtained from software profiling and the resulting design is validated through cosimulation. The achieved speed-up is estimated based on an analysis of profiling information from different sets of input data and various architectural options.
