NoC Emulation on FPGA: HW/SW Synergy for NoC Features Exploration
Current Systems-On-Chip (SoC) execute applications that demand extensive parallel processing. Networks-On-Chip (NoC) provide a structured way of realizing interconnections on silicon, and largely alleviate the limitations of bus-based solutions. NoCs can have regular or ad hoc topologies, and functional validation is essential to assess their correctness and performance. In this paper, we prese...
متن کاملValidation and verification of the interconnection of hardware intellectual property blocks for FPGA-based packet processing systems
As networks become more versatile, the computational requirement for supporting additional functionality increases. The increasing demands of these networks can be met by Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), which are an increasingly popular technology for implementing packet processing systems. The fine-grained parallelism and density of these devices can be exploited to meet the computation...
متن کاملPyCoRAM: Yet Another Implementation of CoRAM Memory Architecture for Modern FPGA-based Computing
Development of FPGA system is very complicated because designers should manage sea of logics and bare-metal components on FPGAs. CoRAM memory architecture is an endeavor to simplify the FPGA accelerator development. Its soft-logic implementation for existing FPGAs gives an abstract of on-chip/off-chip memory and on-chip interconnections. This paper presents PyCoRAM which is yet another implemen...

متن کاملRapid prototyping of Networks-on-Chip on multi-FPGA platforms
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...
