Abstract
A method for improving throughput in a reconfigurable computing system includes detecting, in an algebraic representation of a computing task for a reconfigurable dataflow processor, an outer meta-pipeline loop, detecting an inner meta-pipeline loop nested within the outer meta-pipeline loop, and determining that the inner meta-pipeline loop and the outer meta-pipeline loop each conduct a common operation. The method also includes fusing the common operation for the inner meta-pipeline loop and the outer meta-pipeline loop into a single operation within the inner meta-pipeline loop. The instances of the common operation may be fused if the output of a first instance of the common operation is the source for a second instance of the common operation. Examples of the common operation include an accumulator operation, a re-read operation, and a temporal (chip buffer synchronized) operation such as a temporal concatenation operation and a temporal slicing operation.
