|
| | Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) is one of the promising solutions for future multi-billion MPSoCs. To design such systems, the optimization of the communication infrastructure plays a crucial role. The papers selected for this session cover a broad range of techniques and optimization metrics which can support various communication scenarios.
The first two papers improve the on-chip network performance by keeping the resource utilization low. More precisely, link scheduling and flow-control are exploited as means to optimize the overall network behavior. The last two papers present novel on-chip routing techniques which are meant to improve the resource utilization and provide support for fault-tolerant operation in presence of transient and permanent faults.
By attending this session, the audience will get a deep insight into the most stringent issues in communication-centric design that system designers have to deal with in tomorrow's complex MPSoCs.
