Abstract :
We present a compiler, debugger, linker, and hardware/software interface for data acquisition systems based on hardware that is reconfigurable by the end user. Unlike earlier work, we choose a source language which is software-oriented. Our goal is to make systems with reconfigurable hardware accessible to scientists and engineers who are competent programmers but are not hardware literate
