Experiencing a Problem-Based Learning Approach for Teaching Reconfigurable Architecture Design

Algorithm 1

Main program: all subcomponents (macro procedures) are active in parallel and are connected by synchronous channels.

void main (void){

  /∗declaring communication channels∗/

 chan unsigned 16 pixelCamFlow;

 chan unsigned 8 pixelFlow [4];

 chan unsigned char config [3];

  /∗parallel activity∗/

 par{

   camera (pixelCamFlow);

   conversion (pixelCamFlow, pixelFlow [0]);

   /∗ first module ∗/

   module (pixelFlow [0], pixelFlow [1]

                ,config [0], TRUE);

   /∗ following modules ∗/

   par(i=1; i<moduleNumber−1; i++){

    module (pixelFlow [i],pixelFlow[i+1]

                  ,config [i],FALSE);

   display (pixelFlow[moduleNumber−1]);
