As an emerging and advanced technology, Network-on-Chip (NoC) may become the alternative of the traditional bus-based System-on-Chip (SoC). In an interconnection network structure, interconnected routers are the core of the whole system and the network’s performance mainly depends on their performance. There are many significant factors which determine the working mechanism of a router and its ...

Wormholes and black holes have, apart from a few historical oddities, traditionally been treated a quite separate objects with relatively little overlap. The possibility of a connection arises in that wormholes, if they exist, might have profound influence on black holes, their event horizons, and their internal structure. For instance: (1) small wormhole-induced perturbations in the geometry c...

In multihop wireless systems, such as ad-hoc and sensor networks, the need for cooperation among nodes to relay each other’s packets exposes them to a wide range of security attacks. A particularly devastating attack is known as the wormhole attack, where a malicious node records control and data traffic at one location and tunnels it to a colluding node, which replays it locally. This can have...

We show how to embed spacelike slices of the Schwarzschild wormhole (or Einstein-Rosen bridge) in R 3. Graphical images of embeddings are given, including depictions of the dynamics of this nontraversable wormhole at constant Kruskal times up to, and beyond, the " pinching off " at Kruskal times ±1.
