These two companies are strongly motivated137 providing documentation and development boards. These two companies are strongly motivated 142 138 to help the COACH project to generate efficient bitsream for both FPGA families. 143 139 The role of the industrial partners \bull, \thales, \navtel and \zied is to provide 144 140 real use cases to benchmark the COACH design environment. 145 \par 141 \parlf 146 142 Following the general policy of the SoCLib platform, the COACH project will be an open 147 143 infrastructure, available in the framework of the SoCLib server.
