CriticalBlue is a UK company, with R&D facilities in Edinburgh, Scotland

• CriticalBlue offers an automated coprocessor synthesis solution called Cascade
• Cascade boosts system-on-chip (SoC) processing performance by creating a loosely coupled programmable coprocessor that accelerates the execution of compiled binary executable software code offloaded from the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
• The Cascade generated coprocessor thus requires no compiler, and supports the continued use of the established CPU and its associated investment in design tools and infrastructure

• Automatically synthesizes programmable coprocessor from software executable
• Delivers the parallel processing resources of a custom processor with significantly less deployment time and cost
• Maximizes system performance through memory access and bus communication optimizations
• Reduces system power consumption by enabling execution at a lower clock rate
• Speeds deployment of new software and enables legacy software re-use 'as is'
