Abstract
A spatial data dependence graph (S-DDG) is newly proposed to model an accelerator dataflow. The pre-RTL simulator based on the S-DDG helps to explore the design space in the early design phase. The simulation results show the impact of memory latency and bandwidth on a convolutional neural network (CNN) accelerator.
