چکیده

In this paper we present high performance dynamically allocated multi-queue (DAMQ) buffer schemes for fault tolerance systems on chip applications that require an interconnection network. Two or four virtual channels shared the same buffer space. On the message switching layer, we make improvement to boost system performance when there are faults involved in the components communication. The proposed schemes are when a node or a physical channel is deemed as faulty, the previous hop node will terminate the buffer occupancy of messages destined to the failed link. The buffer usage decisions are made at switching layer without interactions with higher abstract layer, thus buffer space will be released to messages destined to other healthy nodes quickly. Therefore, the buffer space will be efficiently used in case fault occurs at some nodes.

Using DAMQ Self-Compacting Buffer to Improve Performance of NoC System

This paper presents present three novel buffer schemes for system on chip applications that have an interconnection network. The proposed schemes are based on a DAMQ self-compacting buffer to provide larger available buffer space per channel for incoming flits. The proposed schemes outperform existing approaches, and optimize buffer management by providing better throughput when the network has...

Reservation Cut-through Switching Allocation for High-Radix Clos Network on Chip

Clos Network on Chip (CNOC) is a promising Network on Chip (NOC) topology because of its low hop counts and good load-balancing characteristics. The throughput of a CNOC depends on the specific router design, which includes at least two major components: buffering structure and switching allocation (SA). In this paper, we propose three cut-through SA schemes for Virtual Output Queue (VOQ)-based...
