dc.description.abstract | LIDE (the DSPCAD Lightweight Dataflow Environment) is a flexible, lightweight design environment that allows designers to experiment with dataflow-based approaches for design and implementation of digital signal processing (DSP) systems. LIDE contains libraries of dataflow graph elements (primitive actors, hierarchical actors, and edges) and utilities that assist designers in modeling, simulating, and implementing DSP systems using formal dataflow techniques. The libraries of dataflow graph elements (mainly actors) contained in LIDE provide useful building blocks that can be used to construct signal processing applications, and that can be used as examples that designers can adapt to create their own, customized LIDE actors. Furthermore, by using LIDE along with the DSPCAD Integrative Command Line Environment (DICE), designers can efficiently create and execute unit tests for user-designed actors. This report provides an introduction to LIDE. The report includes details on the process for setting up the LIDE environment, and covers methods for using pre-designed libraries of graph elements, as well as creating user-designed libraries and associated utilities using the C language. The report also gives an introduction to the C language plug-in for dicelang. This plug-in, called dicelang-C, provides features for efficient C-based project development and maintenance that are useful to apply when working with LIDE. | en_US |
