Abstract :
In this paper, we describe the Heterogeneous System Architecture Foundation´s application to digital signal processors (DSP) and hardware accelerators. We provide an overview of the HSA runtime, system architecture and programmer´s model, identify characteristics of DSPs and compare differences in algorithms to GPUs. We show an example mapping of HSA agents to a modern DSP using the HSA intermediate language.
