Agility: FPGAs for Fast Image Processing Algorithms
Larry Melling, VP of Marketing, Agility discusses The Agility approach is to provide a development environment that starts with the algorithm in its abstract form (MATLAB or C model/description) and enable fast implementation through automation.
The value is starting from the abstract model and maintaining a verification flow from abstract model to implementation.
This is especially valuable for mathematical models that are done in floating point and rely on mathematical manipulations to process incoming images or signals.
The process of implementation can include floating point to fixed point conversion and modification from frame based processing to stream processing to give two examples of some of the transformation that occurs.
The Agility environment helps developers with these transformations as well as the analysis of the algorithm to determine performance bottlenecks and the dynamic range of data.
