Abstract :
This paper describes C++ class library and bit-serial datapath synthesis algorithm designed to support variable-precision computation on reconfigurable hardware in adaptive computing systems (ACSs). The enhanced synthesis system compiles C++ design entries into smaller datapath circuits with the shorter latencies compared to the fixed-precision bit-serial circuits
