Cost-aware Topology Customization of Mesh-based Networks-on-Chip

CAFT: Cost-aware and Fault-tolerant routing algorithm in 2D mesh Network-on-Chip

By increasing, the complexity of chips and the need to integrating more components into a chip has made network –on- chip known as an important infrastructure for network communications on the system, and is a good alternative to traditional ways and using the bus. By increasing the density of chips, the possibility of failure in the chip network increases and providing correction and fault tol...

Shufle-Exchange Mesh Topology for Networks-on-Chip

Network-on-Chip (NoC) is a promising communication paradigm for multiprocessor system-on-chips. This communication paradigm has been inspired from the packet-based communication networks and aims at overcoming the performance and scalability problems of the shared buses in multi-core SoCs (System on Chips)(Benini & Mecheli, 2002). Although the concept of NoCs is inspired from the traditional in...

Shuffle-Exchange Mesh Topology for Networks-on-Chip

Triplet-based Topology for On-chip Networks

Most CMPs use on-chip network to connect cores and tend to integrate more simple cores on a single die. As the number of cores increases, on-chip network will play an important role in the performance of future CMPs. Due to the tradeoff between the performance and area constraint in on-chip network designs, we propose the use of triplet-based topology in on-chip interconnection networks and dem...

Sphere-based topology for networks-on-chip

This paper proposes sphere-based topology for networks-on-chips. The sphere-based topology is a new structure for network-on-chips that forms in sphere shape. The proposed topology is introduced and compared with existing ones in regard of factors such as power and latency. We have compared the performances of sphere-based topology with two other common topologies namely mesh and torus. Based o...

Interference-Aware and Cluster Based Multicast Routing in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks

Multicast routing is one of the most important services in Multi Radio Multi Channel (MRMC) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Multicast routing performance in WMNs could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. In this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in WMNs. The channels...
