Abstract :
Unlocking the potential of field-programmable gate arrays requires compilers that translate algorithmic high-level language code into hardware circuits. The Trident open source compiler translates C code to a hardware circuit description, providing designers with extreme flexibility in prototyping reconfigurable supercomputers
