Abstract: High level synthesis (HLS) begins with high-level specification of a problem, where behavior is generally decoupled from e.g., clock-level timing. Programming code can be run and debugged during functional simulation using debugging techniques. However, it is not possible to understand execution flow of register transfer level instructions (RTL) generated during RTL debug. Conventionally, it is challenging and not possible due to nature of debugging techniques which ignore printf statements in code for invocation. Systems and methods of present disclosure synthesize printf and/or scanf statements for generating debug messages in HLS code, wherein printf and/or scanf statements is/are included before/after function(s) in sections comprising instructions in code and synthesized as a block during run-time which communicate with host system and debug messages are generated for display on screen.

Abstract: Data processing and storage is an important part of a number of applications. Conventional data processing and storage systems utilize either a full array structure or a full linked list structure for storing data wherein the array consumes large amount of memory and linked list provides slow processing. Thus, conventional systems and methods are not capable of providing simultaneous optimization of memory consumption and time efficiency. The present disclosure provides an efficient way of storing data by creating an integrated array and linked list based structure. The data is stored in the integrated array and linked list based structure by using a delta based mechanism. The delta based mechanism helps in determining the location in the integrated array and linked list based structure where the data should be stored. The present disclosure incorporates the advantages of both array and linked list structure resulting in reduced memory consumption and latency.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to methods and systems for providing exactly-once transaction semantics for fault tolerant FPGA based transaction systems. The systems comprise middleware components in a server as well as client end. The server comprises Hosts and FPGAs. The FPGAs control transaction execution (the application processing logic also resides in the FPGA) and provide fault tolerance with high performance by means of a modified TCP implementation. The Hosts buffer and persist transaction records for failure recovery and achieving exactly-once transaction semantics. The monitoring and fault detecting components are distributed across the FPGA's and Hosts. Exactly-once transaction semantics is implemented without sacrificing performance by switching between a high performance mode and a conservative mode depending on component failures. PCIE switches for connectivity between FPGAs and Hosts ensure FPGAs are available even if Hosts fail.
