ABC Based Multi-Objective Approach for NoC Design Space Exploration
نویسنده
چکیده
Network-on-Chip (NoC) has recently emerged as an efficient communication solution for the System-on-Chip (SoC) design. Design space exploration and performance evaluation are the most essential task in NoC design. In this paper, an ABC based design space exploration framework for the NoC design is proposed. The objective of the design space exploration is to minimize the total energy consumption and maximum link bandwidth. This research has considered many-many mapping between router and IPs instead of one-one mapping. The results show that the proposed framework saves around 40-50% of energy and around 10% of link bandwidth in compare to other contemporary techniques.

PNoC - Design and Preliminary Evaluation of a Parameterizable NoC for MCSoC Generation and Design Space Exploration
Current Multicore Systems-On-Chip (MCSoC) execute applications that need highly parallel processing. Networks-On-Chip (NoC) largely alleviate the limitations of bus-based solutions. NoCs can have regular or ad hoc topologies, and functional validation is essential to estimate their correctness and performance. In this paper, we present a flexible emulation environment implemented on an FPGA tha...

Experimental approaches used for architecture exploration and validation are often based on configurable logic device such as FPGA. NoC architectures require multi-FPGA platforms as the resources of a single FPGA are not big enough. Partitionning a NoC on multi-FPGA requires special techniques for allocating communication channels, physical links and suitable resource allocation scheme. We pres...
