Performance Optimizations in Embedded System Design

  • With regard to performance well established SW-only design methodologies proceed by making the initial specification run first, then by enhancing its functionality and finally by optimizing it. When designing Embedded Systems (EbS) this approach is not viable since decisive design decisions like e.g. the estimation of required processing power or the identification of those parts of the specification which need to be delegated to dedicated HW depend on the fastness and fairness of the initial specification. We here propose a sequence of optimization steps embedded into the design flow, which enables a structured way to accelerate a given working EbS specification at different layers. This sequence of accelerations comprises algorithm selection, algorithm transformation, data transformation, implementation optimization and finally HW acceleration. It is analyzed how all acceleration steps are influenced by the specific attributes of the underlying EbS. The overall acceleration procedure is explained and quantified at hand of a real-life industrial example.
