An Intermediate Representation for Composable Typed Streaming Dataflow Designs

Tydi is an open specification for streaming dataflow designs in digital circuits, allowing designers to express how composite and variable-length data structures are transferred over streams using clear, data-centric types. These data types are extensively used in a many application domains, such as big data and SQL applications. This way,...

Tydi: an open specification for complex data structures over hardware streams

Streaming dataflow designs describe hardware by connecting components through streams that transport data structures. We introduce a stream-oriented specification and type system that provides a clear and intuitive way to map complex, dynamically-sized data structures onto hardware streams. This helps designers to lift the abstraction of...
