Query: f-CNN$^{\text{x}}$: A Toolflow for Mapping Multi-CNN Applications on
  FPGAs   The predictive power of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) has been an
integral factor for emerging latency-sensitive applications, such as autonomous
drones and vehicles. Such systems employ multiple CNNs, each one trained for a
particular task. The efficient mapping of multiple CNNs on a single FPGA device
is a challenging task as the allocation of compute resources and external
memory bandwidth needs to be optimised at design time. This paper proposes
f-CNN$^{\text{x}}$, an automated toolflow for the optimised mapping of multiple
CNNs on FPGAs, comprising a novel multi-CNN hardware architecture together with
an automated design space exploration method that considers the user-specified
performance requirements for each model to allocate compute resources and
generate a synthesisable accelerator. Moreover, f-CNN$^{\text{x}}$ employs a
novel scheduling algorithm that alleviates the limitations of the memory
bandwidth contention between CNNs and sustains the high utilisation of the
architecture. Experimental evaluation shows that f-CNN$^{\text{x}}$'s designs
outperform contention-unaware FPGA mappings by up to 50% and deliver up to 6.8x
higher performance-per-Watt over highly optimised GPU designs for multi-CNN
systems.
