+Scheduling is an important stage in high-level synthesis, as it is the
+main operation that parallelises the input behavioural description so
+that it can take advantage of spatial hardware. Static scheduling in
+particular performs analysis on the behavioural input to extract
+dependencies between constructs or instructions so that it can
+parallelise them as much as possible without changing the behaviour.
+This is contrary to dynamic scheduling, where no analysis is done, and
+tokens are used to automatically schedule all the instructions.
