Embedded systems are being increasingly network interconnected. They are required to interact with their environment through text-based protocol messages. Parsing such messages is control dominated. The work presented in this article attempts to accelerate message parsers using a codesign-based approach. We propose a generic architecture associated with an automated design methodology that enables SoC/SoPC system generation from high-level specifications of message protocols. Experimental results obtained on a Xilinx ML605 board show acceleration factors ranging from four to 11. Both static and dynamic reconfigurations of coprocessors are discussed and then evaluated so as to reduce the system hardware complexity.
