Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In hardware/software codesign, the functional description of an information system is optimized as a mixture of software modules and hardware modules. The partitioning of hardware/software modules is the crucial step of the optimization. To evaluate the precise execution time and the precise amount of resources, we need to decide the processor and compile the software modules for the processor and we also need to do the high-level synthesis, logic synthesis and layout for hardware modules. After these steps we can do the co-simulation of the system using the practical data. The compilation/synthesis steps and the co-simulation steps are time-consuming and so we would like to estimate the partitioning more easily at the initial phase of the co-design. In this report, we show a customizable hardware/software partitioning evaluation method using a simple high-level synthesis system. After generating the sequence of operations using the high-level synthesis system, we count the number of clocks and the amount of resources. The number of clocks and the amount of resources for each operation is specified by a customizable table and we can measure the total clocks and resources using the evaluation method. By adjusting the values of the parameters, this method can evaluate the system performance precisely with small amount of time.
