Write a program that sends the “Hello World!” string
to the MAX2 card, for the MAX2 card kernel
to return it back to the host.
To be learned through this example:
◦ How to make the configuration of the accelerator (MAX2 card) using Java:
 How to make a simple kernel (ops description) using Java (the only language),
 How to write the standard manager (config description based on kernel(s))
using Java,
◦ How to test the kernel using a test (code+data) written in Java,
◦ How to compile the Java code for MAX2,
◦ How to write a simple C code that runs on the host
and triggers the kernel,
 How to write the C code that streams data to the kernel,
 How to write the C code that accepts data from the kernel,
◦ How to simulate and execute an application program in C
that runs on the host and periodically calls the accelerator.


Casting here means moving data from one form to another,
without changing their essence.

Type is:
◦
◦
◦
specified for inputs and outputs,
propagated from inputs, down the dataflow graph to outputs,
used to check that output stream has correct type.

If conversion is needed,
explicit conversion (cast) is required

How to do it?
◦

Additional hardware required
(especially for conversion to or from floating point numbers),
◦

use the method cast in class HWVar,
introduces additional latency.
Cast between a floating point number and an integer number
is done by rounding to the nearest integer!
