Energy Efficient Network Generation for Application Specific NoC

Abstract

Networks-on-Chip is emerging as a communication platform for future complex SoC designs, composed of a large number of homogenous or heterogeneous processing resources. Most SoC platforms are customized to the domainspecific requirements of their applications, which communicate in a specific, mostly irregular way. The specific but often diverse communication requirements among cores of the SoC call for the design of application-specific network of SoC for improved performance in terms of communication energy, latency, and throughput. In this work, we propose a methodology for the design of customized irregular network architecture of SoC. The proposed method exploits priori knowledge of the application2019;s communication characteristic to generate an energy optimized network and corresponding routing tables
