—In this work, we provide a technique for efficiently exploring the power/performance design space of a parameterized system-on-a-chip (SOC) architecture to find all Pareto-optimal configurations. These Pareto-optimal configurations will represent the range of power and performance tradeoffs that are obtainable by adjusting parameter values for a fixed application that is mapped on the SOC arch...

Moderne CMOS-Technologien erlauben, als Folge stetig sinkender Strukturbreiten, die Integration komplexer Systeme auf einem Schaltkreis, als System on Chip (SoC). Durch Strukturgrößen unterhalb von 250 nm, dem Deep Sub-Micron-Bereich (DSM), steigt der Einfluss parasitärer Effekte in performanzund leistungsrelevante Größenordungen. Gleichzeitig entwickelt sich die Verlustleistungsaufnahme der So...

One of the major challenges in testing a system-on-a-chip (SoC) is dealing with the large test data volume and large scan power consumption. To reduce the volume of test data, several test data compression techniques have been proposed. This paper presents a new test data compression scheme, which reduces test data volume for a system-on-a-chip (SoC). The proposed approach is based on the use o...

The paper presents a novel Optical Network on Chip (ONoC) relying on the multi-level optical layer design paradigm and called “OMNoC”. The proposed ONoC relies on multi-level microring resonator allowing efficient light coupling between superposed waveguides. Such microring resonator avoids using waveguide crossing, which contribute to reduce propagation losses. Preliminary experimental results...
