HLS tools are becoming fashionable again.  Is this second wave of HLS the one industry will surf on?  There are a lot of technical, strategic and human related questions behind this HLS comeback.  In this session the panellists from System, S/C, EDA companies and Universities will look into the following questions:  have designs become so complex that they cannot avoid higher level of abstraction?  Have HLS tools become so much better?  Can HLS yield entitlement gate count?  Is HLS a new market?  What are the practical issues with HLS production flows?  Does HLS improve design predictability and efficiency?  What are the next challenges?
