+# Project Structure
+
+The core of the SoC is NanoSoC. This is an example, configurable system that is the main framework. It has many different memory-mapped regions, one of which is designed for the connection of accelerator subsystems called the expansion region.
+
+The expansion region is able to instantiate an accelerator_subsystem by default. This means that anyone using NanoSoC as a platform for accelerator experimentation will need to build an `accelerator_subsystem` rtl module.
+
+`accelerator_subsystem` can either directly contain an accelerator (or multiple) or can instantiate accelerator wrappers which in turn instantiate accelerators.
+
+This module is expected to be found in `system/src/accelerator_subsystem.v`.
+
 ## Running the simulation
 
 This design instantiates a custom (AMBA-AHB) wrapper around the AES core to implement a memory-mapped 128-bit AES encrypt/decrypt accelerator that can be used as a software-driven peripheral or a semi-autonomous DMA subystem when 128-bit keys and variable length data payloads can be set up as scatter/gather descriptor chains for background processing.
