Abstract(in English) This article presents an improvement over the hardware accelerator tightly coupled with a CPU While the previously proposed method assumes only a single fragment from a binary code to be synthesized into an accelerator, our method attempts to accelerate multiple fragments. Instead of connecting multiple acceleratos corresponding to the fragments in parallel, a single hardware module is synthesized which is capable of accelerating the multiple sections. This enables sharing of datapath resources as well as the control among multiple tasks, which makes the accelerator cost-efficient. Furthermore, the capability of handling multiple code fragments makes it possible to synthesize complex control structures, such as calling software subroutines from a hardware accelerator, into hardware.
