SkeleShare: Algorithmic Skeletons and Equality Saturation for Hardware Resource Sharing
Compiling functional programs into efficient Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designs is difficult. Hardware resources must be explicitl… (voir plus)y allocated and shared to maximize resource efficiency. This requires careful orchestration of several transformations to expose and exploit sharing opportunities.This paper introduces SkeleShare, a novel approach that automates the problem of resource allocation and sharing. It leverages equality saturation and algorithmic skeletons to expose sharing opportunities across abstraction levels. A solver-based extractor then selects a design that consolidates computations, meeting resource constraints while maintaining performance.This approach is evaluated on neural networks and image processing targeting a real FPGA. The paper shows how SkeleShare is used to express the various algorithmic patterns and transformation rules inherent in neural network operators. The experimental evaluation demonstrates that SkeleShare’s fully automated resource allocation and sharing matches and exceeds the performance of prior work, which involves expert manual extraction of sharing opportunities.
