Some questions about hardware constraint
Hello, thanks for open-sourcing great tool!
I am comparing hardware simulation against the tool, but I see big discrepancies with the result. I suspect the tool has made some assumptions, so I want to ask some questions about hardware constraints and the code and get confirmed.
- In the
maestro
doc, it says it supports any level of hierarchies. https://maestro.ece.gatech.edu/docs/build/html/hw_supported.html. When level is 2, does it assumenoc_bw
for noc level 1 and noc level 2 are same? - There are lots of places in the code where it assumes the level is 2 at maximum. (e.g. loop iteration assumes level-2). Do you have any tutorials to run archietecture with more than 2 levels of hierarchy?
-
multicast
parameter doesn't seem to be used anywhere. Does it assumemulticast
fromL2
memory toL1
is always available? - Does it assume that the word size of partial sum is same as input/filter data?
Thanks again
