Adding Automatic Parallelization to Faust

Linux Audio Conference, 2009, Parma, Italy

Faust 0.9.9.5 introduces new compilation options to do automatic parallelization of code using OpenMP. This paper explains how the automatic parallelization is done and presents some benchmarks.

Semantics for multirate Faust

[Technical Report] GRAME. 2009

Faust is a functional programming language dedicated to the specification of executable monorate musical applications. We present here a multirate extension of the core of the Faust language, called MR Faust, together with a typing semantics, a denotational semantics and correctness theorems that link them together.

DSP Programming with Faust, Q and SuperCollider

Linux Audio Conference, 2006, Karlsruhe, Germany

Faust is a functional programming language for realtime signal processing and synthesis that targets high-performance signal processing applications and audio plugins. The paper gives a brief introduction to Faust and discusses its interfaces to Q, a general purpose functional programming language, and SuperCollider, an object-oriented sound synthesis language and engine.

USING FAUST FOR FPGA PROGRAMMING

International Conference on Digital Audio Effects, 2006, Montreal, Canada. pp.287-290

In this paper we show the possibility of using FAUST (a programming language for function based block oriented programming) to create a fast audio processor in a single chip FPGA environment. The produced VHDL code is embedded in the on-chip processor system and utilizes the FPGA fabric for parallel processing. For the purpose of implementing and testing the code a complete System-On-Chip framework has been created. We use a Digilent board with a XILINX Virtex... Lire la suite

In this paper we show the possibility of using FAUST (a programming language for function based block oriented programming) to create a fast audio processor in a single chip FPGA environment. The produced VHDL code is embedded in the on-chip processor system and utilizes the FPGA fabric for parallel processing. For the purpose of implementing and testing the code a complete System-On-Chip framework has been created. We use a Digilent board with a XILINX Virtex 2 Pro FPGA. The chip has a PowerPC 405 core and the framework uses the on chip peripheral bus to interface the core. The content of this paper presents a proof-of-concept implementation using a simple two pole IIR filter. The produced code is working, although more work has to be done for implementing complex arithmetic operations support.
