Abstract(in English) In this paper, we evaluate a performance model for heat spreading simulation on a MaxCompiler, a kind of high-level synthesis tool for FPGAs, and MaxGenFD, a domain specific framework on the MaxCompiler for finite-difference equations. We propose estimation models of resource usage and computational performance which help application developers to find the best parameters from design-space restricted by FPGA resources such as DSP modules and BRAMs. Compared to multi-threaded and SIMD-enabled CPU implementation, our FPGA design achieves about 6.6 times faster performance.
