The design procedure of a multithreaded processor dedicated to the image generation is described, which can be achieved by means of a high-level synthesis tool PARTHENON. The processor employs a multithreaded architecture which is a novel promising approach to the parallel image generation. This paper puts special stress on the high-level synthesis scheme which can simplify the behavioral description for the structure and control of a complex hardware, and therefore enables the design of a complicated mechanism for a multithreaded processor. Implementation results of the synthesis are also shown to demonstrate the performance of the designed processor. This processor greatly improves the throughput of the image generation so far attained by the conventional approach.
