Synthesis for matrix multiplication using a data processing array

A system, comprising:

• one or more hardware processors configured to initiate operations including:
• receiving parameters defining a matrix multiply operation to be implemented in a data processing array;
• generating a formulation of the matrix multiply operation based on the parameters;
• determining a matrix multiply solution for performing the matrix multiply operation in the data processing array, wherein the matrix multiply solution specifies a spatial and temporal partitioning of the matrix multiply operation for implementation in the data processing array;
• and
• generating synthesizable program code defining an interface for the data processing array based on the matrix multiply solution, wherein the interface is configured to partition and transfer input data to the data processing array from an external memory and convey output data from the data processing array to the external memory.
