Abstract
Implementing an application within a heterogeneous device can include receiving an application specifying a plurality of hardware accelerators and having a plurality of sections corresponding to different subsystems of the heterogeneous device, wherein the plurality of sections are specified using different programming models. Compiling each section based on the programming model of the section and the subsystem of the heterogeneous device corresponding to the section into an accelerator representation. Linking the accelerator representations based on a platform of the heterogeneous device, generating a hardware implementation of the application for the heterogeneous device based on the linked accelerator implementations, and automatically generating program code configured to control one or more of the plurality of hardware accelerators of the hardware implementation.
