7The objectives of this task are the specification of the designer input, the
8definition of the hardware architectural templates and of all the features
9that the HAS tools will share.
10An other objective is the specification of the framework used to facilitate the
11exploitation and the integration of the core engine into an industrial flow.

15\subtask{Specification of the COACH environment}
16    This \ST specifies the global COACH environment for the system designer:
17    the core engine which is seen as a black box associated
18    with a configuration framework based on Eclipse.
19    This framework will be integated into Magillem tool suite.
20    The deliverables specify
21    how to feed COACH (the inputs),
22    how to use COACH (use model),
23    what is generated (the outputs)
24    and  how the Magillem framework iteracts with the core engine.
25    \begin{livrable}
26    \itemV{0}{6}{d}{\Supmc}{Use model specification}
27        This document describes the use model of COACH. It will be a cooperative work.

32            here the COACH System Generator Generator is specified:
33            how the task graph is described, the communication schemes and
34            its associated API (Application  Programming Interface).
35            The base is the SRL library and the MWMR communication component defined
36            by the SocLib ANR project.

165\subtask{Tool for cell library creation}
166    Backend HLS tools use a characterized macro-cell library to build the
167    micro-architecture of a coprocessor. The characterisation of a cell depends
168    on the target device. The role of this \ST is to define the macro-cells and
169    to provite a tool that characterizes them automatically by synthesizing them
170    and by extracting their delays. This is done by using RTL synthesis.
