STREAMING DATA INTERFACE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC GENERATION THEREOF

摘要

A streaming data interface device (700) of a streaming processing system (200) is automatically generated by selecting a set of circuit parameters (610) consistent with a set of circuit constraints and generating (612, 614) a representation of a candidate memory interface device based upon a set of stream descriptors. The candidate streaming data interface device is evaluated (616) with respect to one or more quality metrics and the representation of the candidate streaming processor circuit is output (622) if the candidate memory interface device satisfies a set of processing system constraints and is better in at least one of the one or more quality metrics than other candidate memory interface devices
