Abstract :
The ever increasing quantities of logic resources combined with heterogeneous integrated performance enhancing primitives in high-end FPGAs creates a design complexity challenge that requires new methodologies to address. We present a structured system based design methodology which aims to increase productivity and exploit reconfigurability in large scale FPGAs. The methodology is exemplified by sonic-on-a-chip, a video image processing system.
