| Abstract | In this paper, we present a design exploration framework, called WIZARD, which aims at nding module selections leading to acceptable designs while considering scheduling and resource binding under latency, and power constraints. The framework contains two phases: choosing the resource con guration, and determining a module binding for each resource. We introduce a powerful model, called acceptability function which models design objectives, based on tradeo s among di erent design constraints as well as users' willingness of accepting a design. Module utility measure cooperating with inclusion scheduling is a key to the success of the method. The module utility re ects the usefulness of the module based on the acceptability function. Inclusion scheduling is a basic tool to calculate the number of generic resources as well as determine module usefulness. A heuristic which perturbs module utility values based on the given acceptability function until they lead to superior selections is proposed. The experiments on well-known benchmarks show the e ectiveness of the approach when comparing the obtained module selections with the results from enumerating all module selections, as well as MSSR and PSGA.
