Part 1 explains how Atmel used the Target tools to develop a DSP optimized for C programming. In the first part of this two part series, we outlined the main reasons we designed the mAgic DSP ...
An important aspect in software engineering is the ability to distinguish between premature, unnecessary, and necessary optimizations. A strong case can be made that the initial design benefits ...
A common use case for high-level synthesis (HLS) is taking 3rd party generated or legacy C/C++ algorithms and converting the algorithm to a hardware implementation using an HLS compiler. This can ...
Earlier this month, I decided I wanted to write a post on not all optimization being premature optimization after hearing more than one developer use this mantra as an excuse for not making a better ...
