The AXIOM project aims at providing an environment for Cyber-Physical Systems. Smart Video Surveillance targets public environments, involving real-time face detection in crowds. Smart Home Living targets home environments and access control. These applications are used as experimental usecases for the AXIOM platform, currently based on the Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoCs. We have integrated the Xilinx Vivado HLS tool for the FPGA support within the OmpSs programming model, to enable OpenMP-like programming in the FPGA. This paper presents the programming environment, and the evaluation of the most computationally expensive parts of the target applications.
