It provides a proof, checked using the Coq proof assistant~\cite{coq}, that every step of its translation from C to Verilog preserves the semantics of its input program. This means that we can always trust any Verilog design produced by \vericert{} to behave the same way as the C program given as input. %It is based on the CompCert~\cite{compcert_Leroy2009} verified C compiler. -Clearly, however, it is not enough for an HLS tool simply to be \emph{correct}; the generated hardware must also enjoy high throughput, low latency, and good \emph{area efficiency} -- the last of which is the topic of this paper. A common optimisation employed by HLS tools to improve area efficiency is \emph{resource sharing}; that is, re-using hardware for more than one purpose. Accordingly, our work adds resource sharing to \vericert{} a new prototype HLS tool called Keeping with the aims of the \vericert{} project, work is ongoing to extend the correctness proof. +Clearly, however, it is not enough for an HLS tool simply to be \emph{correct}; the generated hardware must also enjoy high throughput, low latency, and good \emph{area efficiency} -- the last of which is the topic of this paper.
