Abstract
Systems and methods automatically generate optimized hardware description language code for a model created in a modeling environment. A training tool selects and provides scripts to a hardware synthesis tool chain that direct the tool chain to synthesize hardware components for core components of the modeling environment. A report generated by the tool chain is evaluated to extract performance data for the core components, and the performance data is stored in a library. An optimization tool estimates the performance of the model using the performance data in the library. Based on the performance estimate and an analysis of the model, the optimization tool selects an optimization technique which it applies to the model generating a revised. Estimating performance, and selecting and applying optimizations may be repeated until a performance constraint is satisfied or a termination criterion is met.
