Abstract
Implementing circuitry from an application may include partitioning an array of the application into a plurality of virtual blocks according to a streaming dimension of the array and determining that a first function and a second function of the application that access the array have same access patterns for the virtual blocks of the array. A first-in-first out (FIFO) memory may be included in a circuit design implementing the application. The FIFO memory couples a first circuit block implementing the first function with a second circuit block implementing the second function. Control circuitry is included within the circuit design. The control circuitry may be configured to implement concurrent operation of the first circuit block and the second circuit block by controlling accesses of the first circuit block and the second circuit block to a plurality of buffers in the FIFO memory.
