چکیده
-A new paradigm for an all-to-all optical interconnection network is presented. An interesting modeling aspect is that (limited) bending of optical communication channels is allowed. In a computer system, the paradigm could provide part of an interconnection fabric between several tens (e.g., 64) of chips comprising parallel processing elements and the first level of the cache. An optical interconnection network raises an intriguing possibility: obtain both improved performance and significant cost reduction with respect to standard serial computer system models.

Design of a Low-Latency Router Based on Virtual Output Queuing and Bypass Channels for Wireless Network-on-Chip
Wireless network-on-chip (WiNoC) is considered as a novel approach for designing future multi-core systems. In WiNoCs, wireless routers (WRs) utilize high-bandwidth wireless links to reduce the transmission delay between the long distance nodes. When the network traffic loads increase, a large number of packets will be sent into the wired and wireless links and can...
متن کاملCongestion 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...
