Abstract(in English) In high-level synthesis, control-data flow graphs(CDFGs) are frequently used to describe the behavior of circuits since they can explicitly represents the parallelism and dependency of algorithms. The structure of CDFGs has great impact on the results of the high-level synthesis tasks such as scheduling and allocation. Although it is desirable to find the CDFG structure that is suitable for the constraints of the high-level synthesis tasks, the search for the suitable structure is very time-consuming. This paper presents an CDFG representation using a super node which is a virtual operation node merging several operations nodes. In order to handle the super nodes in the scheduling task, the list-based scheduling is extended such that operations are identified by their inputs. The proposed list-based scheduling minimizes the numbers of control steps and registers under resource constraints based on the priority functions that also optimize the CDFG structure.
