Network on Chip(NoC),a new proposed solution to solve global communication problem in complex System on Chip (SoC) design,has absorbed more and more researchers to do research in this area. Due to some distinct characteristics, NoC is different from both traditional off-chip network and traditional on-chip bus,and is facing with the huge design challenge. NoC router design is one of the most important issues in NoC system. The paper present a high-performance, low-latency two-stage pipelined router architecture suitable for NoC designs and providing a solution to irregular 2Dmesh topology for NoC. The key features of the proposed Mix Router are its suitability for 2Dmesh NoC topology and its capability of suorting both full-adaptive routing and deterministic routing algorithm.

Network-on-Chip (NoC) is fast emerging as an on-chip communication alternative for many-core System-on-Chips (SoCs). However, designing a high performance low latency NoC with low area overhead has remained a challenge. In this paper, we present a two-clock-cycle latency NoC microarchitecture. An efficient request masking technique is proposed to combine virtual channel (VC) allocation with switch allocation nonspeculatively. Our proposed NoC architecture is optimized in terms of area overhead, operating frequency, and quality-of-service (QoS). We evaluate our NoC against CONNECT, an open source low latency NoC design targeted for field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The experimental results on several FPGA devices show that our NoC router outperforms CONNECT with 50% reduction of logic cells (LCs) utilization, while it works with 100% and 35%~20% higher operating frequency compared to the one- and two-clock-cycle latency CONNECT NoC routers, respectively. Moreover, the proposed NoC router achieves 2.3 times better performance compared to CONNECT.

Network-on-Chip (NoC) has become a promising design methodology for the modern on-chip communication infrastructure of many-core system. To guarantee the reliability of traffic, effective fault-tolerant scheme is critical to NoC systems. In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant deflection routing (FTDR) to address faults on links and router by redundancy technique. The proposed FTDR employs backup links and a redundant fault-tolerant unit (FTU) at router-level to sustain the traffic reliability of NoC. Experimental results show that the proposed FTDR yields an improvement of routing performance and fault-tolerant capability over the reported fault-tolerant routing schemes in average flit deflection rate, average packet latency, saturation throughput and reliability by up to 13.5%, 9.8%, 10.6% and 17.5%, respectively. The layout area and power consumption are increased merely 3.5% and 2.6%.

Mostly communication now days is done through SoC (system on chip) models so, NoC (network on chip) architecture is most appropriate solution for better performance. However, one of major flaws in this architecture is power consumption. To gain high performance through this type of architecture it is necessary to confirm power consumption while designing this. Use of power should be diminished in every region of network chip architecture. Lasting power consumption can be lessened by reaching alterations in network routers and other devices used to form that network. This research mainly focusses on state-of-the-art methods for designing NoC architecture and techniques to reduce power consumption in those architectures like, network architecture, network links between nodes, network design, and routers.
