In response to the demand for intelligent equipment electronic systems, this article designs a neural network accelerator soft core and supporting quantitative compilation software based on the programmable logic on the "Hongxin" intelligent reconfigurable platform. It realizes the unified quantitative compilation and deployment of neural network models for self-developed accelerator soft cores, and expands the functions of the "Hongtu" embedded real-time operating system, achieving support for hardware accelerated operation of neural networks. Through experimental testing, the performance of the neural network accelerator soft core is comparable to that of the AMD Xilinx DPU soft core. The "Hongtu" embedded real-time operating system running ResNet18 and ResNet50 delivers four times higher performance than the AMD Xilinx PetaLinux environment. These results enhance the artificial intelligence capabilities of the "Hongxin" intelligent reconfigurable platform.

As neural network models become increasingly complex, Network-on-Chip (NoC) plays a critical communication role in heterogeneous computing systems. However, the traditional NoC simulation tools generally lack support for heterogeneous computing units such as matrix processing units and RISC-V programmable cores, making it difficult to meet the requirements of large-scale AI tasks in terms of real-time performance, throughput, and energy efficiency. To address these challenges, this paper proposes and implements a behavior-level NoC simulation framework for heterogeneous computing. The framework features high-precision node modeling, a dynamic pipelining mechanism, a hybrid task-aware routing algorithm, and full-path visualization and debugging capabilities. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly outperforms traditional methods in average latency, throughput, and visualization debugging efficiency. Notably, it exhibits greater stability and scalability in scenarios involving hybrid task flows and hardware faults, providing strong support for the design and optimization of NoC in next-generation intelligent computing platforms.

Addressing the core requirements of unmanned systems in terms of autonomous controllability, real-time response, and intelligent collaboration, this paper proposes a full-stack localized unmanned intelligent control system solution based on ReWorks embedded real-time operating system and openEuler open-source operating system. By constructing a dual-system heterogeneous architecture of "AI brain + real-time cerebellum", combined with the ROS2 communication framework and microROS embedded extension, deep collaboration between intelligent decision-making and hard real-time control is achieved. Verification on domestic hardware platforms such as Loongson 2K1000 and Feiteng D2000 shows that the real-time performance indicators of this solution are significantly better than those of Linux, providing a full-stack autonomous controllable technology path for unmanned system application scenarios such as underwater robots and drones.

This paper presents the embedded deployment of the PVAC model to predict the risk of ventilator-associated complications (VAC) in patients with acute respiratory failure. The PVAC model employs the USMOTE (0.9) algorithm to address imbalanced data and integrates an AdaBoost classifier, achieving an accuracy of 71.11% and a precision of 68.89%. To overcome the limitations of existing AI medical systems that rely on cloud servers, we implemented a fully embedded deployment of the PVAC model using the PYNQ-Z2 development board. This solution offers three key advantages: offline standalone operation, hardware acceleration for improved computational efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Experimental results demonstrate that the hardware-software co-design approach significantly reduces the total execution time from 46.3 ms to 10.2 ms, achieving a speedup of 78%. Meanwhile, the ARM processor's workload decreases dramatically from 98% to 28%, with only a 0.2% drop in prediction accuracy, effectively preserving the model's original performance. This study not only validates the feasibility of embedding the PVAC model but also provides a reference for the localized deployment of other medical AI applications. Future work may focus on further optimizing the decision tree structure, leveraging the dynamic reconfigurability of FPGAs to support more complex models, extending the capability to process temporal signals, and developing low-power modes to extend device usage time, thereby enhancing the system's practicality and applicability.

Memory access latency remains a major bottleneck for many applications on modern processors. To optimize memory access performance, it is crucial to exploit the locality of reference in memory accesses. Data layout optimization techniques, through operations such as merging, splitting, and reorganizing data structures, can significantly improve the locality of memory access. This paper first provides an overview of the technological background of memory architecture and data organization involved in layout optimization techniques. Then introduces the key issues that data orchestration techniques aim to address, the core ideas behind these techniques, and the main technologies upon which their implementation relies. Given the significant differences in storage and access patterns across various types of data, this paper focuses on systematically summarizing and categorizing relevant research, comparing the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches, and analyzing promising future research directions.

To address the issues of inconsistent abstraction levels in algorithm accelerator models, complex verification environment construction, and cross-toolchain and multi-language collaboration, an agile verification platform for algorithm accelerators based on AST and DPI is designed. Using the AST parsing algorithm model for the syntax tree structure of the C program, specific algorithm functions are mapped to the SV DPI interface to generate UVM reference models and direct test vectors. The RTL code is automatically parsed to generate a UVM-based verification environment, and the reference model is compared with the actual output through the generated DPI interface to verify the function correctness. This platform effectively lowers the verification threshold for algorithm accelerator verification personnel. With automated tools, it can directly create a verification environment aligned with the industrial output, significantly shortening the verification cycle.
