Reconfigurable systems are known to be able to achieve higher performance than traditional microprocessor architecture for many application fields. However, in order to extract a full potential of the reconfigurable systems, programmers often have to design and describe the best suited code for their target architecture with specialized knowledge. The aim of this paper is to assist the users of reconfigurable systems by implementing a translator with a multithread model. The experimental results show our translator automatically generates efficient performance-aware code segments including DMA transfer and shift registers for memory access optimization.
