Abstract :
In asynchronous system, initiation and completion of operations are events that can occur at any instant and the execution time is data dependent. Thus if an asynchronous timing model is considered, we can provide scheduling and resource allocation methods which will have a significant impact on the performance and the area of the final implementation. Until now the different methods proposed for high-level synthesis (HLS) do not apply to the above topics. This paper proposes a methodology for the scheduling of asynchronous systems. It is based on the average delay
