Congestion estimation of router input ports in Network-on-Chip for efficient virtual allocation

Effective and congestion-aware routing is vital to the performance of network-on-chip. The efficient routing algorithm undoubtedly relies on the considered selection strategy. If the routing function returns a number of more than one permissible output ports, a selection function is exploited to choose the best output port to reduce packets latency. In this paper, we introduce a new selection s...

MULTI-OBJECTIVE ROUTING AND SCHEDULING IN FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS UNDER UNCERTAINTY

The efficiency of transportation system management plays an important role in the planning and operation efficiency of flexible manufacturing systems. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) are part of diversified and advanced techniques in the field of material transportation which have many applications today and act as an intermediary between operating and storage equipment and are routed and contr...

EDXY - A low cost congestion-aware routing algorithm for network-on-chips

In this paper, an adaptive routing algorithm for two-dimensional mesh network-on-chips (NoCs) is presented. The algorithm, which is based on Dynamic XY (DyXY), is called Enhanced Dynamic XY (EDXY). It is congestion-aware and more link failure tolerant compared to the DyXY algorithm. On contrary to the DyXY algorithm, it can avoid the congestion when routing from the current switch to the destin...

Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process Part Routing in FMS

Routing flexibility provides the ability of FMS to efficiently encounter traffic problems caused by machine breakdown, excessive workload, etc. The advantages of imposing routing flexibility can be fully obtained by a competent part roufing rule. In this study, Fuzry Analytical Hierarchy Process (Fuzry AHP) is applied to form part routing rules from the attributes of alternate machines: workloa...
