Codesign of Silicon Systems
Presentation
The project COSI works on methods and tools for implementing
complete systems on silicon.
Our main thesis is that the tools and methods must be based on
executable specifications which can be systematically transformed,
with the ability to validate each transformation and to retrace
the design path. These transformations are (as far as possible)
based on formal methods, and must enable the designer to integrate
with other tools that are not.
Our work emphasizes three main themes: very high level synthesis
of dedicated hardware and software using formal transformations,
compilation and optimization for ASIPs, and tools
and design methods for reconfigurable computing. We focus principally
but not exclusively on regular computations that can benefit from
parallelism.
We also work on specific applications drawn from signal and image
processing, telecom, high performance computing, biological sequence
comparison,etc., as well as on fundamental parallel algorithms.
