Compaan: deriving process networks from Matlab for embedded signal processing architectures

This paperpresents the Compaantool that automatically transforms a nestedloopprogram written in Matlab into a processnetwork specification. The processnetworkmodelof computationfits better with the new emerging kind of embedded architectures that use coprocessors. Processnetworkscandescribeboth fine-grainedandcoarsegrained parallelism, making the mapping of the applicationseasier. Keywords Process Networks, Matlab, Mapping, Embedded Architectures.
