Query: OpenHEC: A Framework for Application Programmers to Design FPGA-based
  Systems   Today, there is a trend to incorporate more intelligence (e.g., vision
capabilities) into a wide range of devices, which makes high performance a
necessity for computing systems. Furthermore, for embedded systems, low power
consumption should be generally considered together with high computing
performance. FPGAs, as programmable logic devices able to support different
types of fine-grained parallelisms, their power and performance advantages were
recognized widely. However, designing applications on FPGA-based systems is
traditionally far from a task can be carried out by software programmers.
Generally, hardware engineers and even system-level software engineers have
more hardware/architectural knowledge but fewer algorithm and application
knowledge. Thus, it is critical for computing systems to allow
application-level programmers to realize their idea conveniently, which is
popular in computing systems based on the general processor. In this paper, the
OpenHEC (Open Framework for High-Efficiency Computing) framework is proposed to
provide a design framework for application-level software programmers to use
FPGA-based platforms. It frees users from hardware and architectural details to
let them focus more on algorithms/applications. This framework was integrated
with the commercial Xilinx ISE/Vivado to make it to be used immediately. After
implementing a widely-used feature detection algorithm on OpenHEC from the
perspective of software programmers, it shows this framework is applicable for
application programmers with little hardware knowledge.
