Evaluation de l'outil SynDEx en vue de prototypage rapide d'applications de traitement d'images sur machine MIMD-DM

International audience; The goal of this paper is to evaluate the SynDEx system-level CAD tool in order to estimate its usefulness for fast prototyping of image processing applications on a MIMD-DM architecture. This software can assist the programmer during the implementation of image processing applications in his constrained search for an efficient matching between algorithm and architecture. Two main conclusions were drawn from this work. First, the implementation of a connected component labeling algorithm on a multi-transputer architecture allowed us to quantify the gap between the estimated performances predicted by SynDEx and the effective performances measured on the generated exec…
