Automation and optimization of a CUDA to FPGA high level synthesis tool

In this report, I will show that the current CUDA-to-FPGA (FCUDA) flow has been tested with a good set of CUDA kernels collecting from NVIDIA CUDA SDK, Parboil Benchmark suite, and Rodinia Benchmark suite. The testing flows will be discussed thoroughly along with many optimization decisions. It also...
