Efficient Software Synthesis of Dynamic Dataflow Programs

International audienceThis paper introduces advanced software synthesis techniques that enhance the implementation of dynamic dataflow programs. These techniques have been implemented into open-source tools and demonstrated on well-known video decoders including one based on the new High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard. The results show an improvement of more than 100% of the frame-rate over previously proposed implementations, and achieve real-time decoding of high definition video sequences
