Abstract(in English) In high level synthesis, scheduling is an important stage which assigns each operation appeared in a data flow graph to a specific control step, of which results influence the design quality directly. This paper describes a scheduling approach for pipelined datapaths. Since no previous approach estimates the interconnection cost between registers (register-to-register cost), our approach introduces a datapath model with the interconnection between registers across buses, and minimizes the total hardware cost including the register-to-register cost with Integer Linear Programming approaches. Consequently the proposed approach can estimate the hardware cost exactly in the scheduling phase.
