Different intellectual property (IP) cores, including processor and memory, are interconnected to build a typical system-on-chip (SoC) architecture. Larger SoC designs dictate the data communication to happen over the global interconnects. Network-on-Chip(NoC) architectures have been proposed as a scalable solution to the global communication challenges in nanoscale systems-on-chip (SoC) design. We proposed an idea on building customizing synthesis network—on-chip with the better flow partitioning and also considered power and area reduction as compared to the already presented regular topologies. Hence to improve the performance of SoC, first, we did a performance study of regular interconnect topologies MESH, TORUS, BFT and EBFT, we observed that the overall latency and throughput of the EBFT is better compared to other topologies, The next best in case of latency and throughput is BFT. Experimental results on a variety of NoC benchmarks showed that our synthesis results were achieved reduction in power consumption and average hop count over custom topology implementation.

AbstractPhotonic network-on-chip for high-performance multi-core processors has attracted substantial interest in recent years as it offers a systematic method to meet the demand of large bandwidth, low latency and low power dissipation. In this paper we demonstrate a non-blocking six-port optical switch for cluster-mesh photonic network-on-chip. The architecture is constructed by substituting three optical switching units of typical Spanke-Benes network to optical waveguide crossings. Compared with Spanke-Benes network, the number of optical switching units is reduced by 20%, while the connectivity of routing path is maintained. By this way the footprint and power consumption can be reduced at the expense of sacrificing the network latency performance in some cases. The device is realized by 12 thermally tuned silicon Mach-Zehnder optical switching units. Its theoretical spectral responses are evaluated by establishing a numerical model. The experimental spectral responses are also characterized, which indicates that the optical signal-to-noise ratios of the optical switch are larger than 13.5 dB in the wavelength range from 1525 nm to 1565 nm. Data transmission experiment with the data rate of 32 Gbps is implemented for each optical link.

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.

Self-aware and adaptive Network-on-Chip (NoC) with dual monitoring networks is presented. Proper monitoring interface is an essential prerequisite to adaptive system reconfiguration in parallel on-chip computing. This work proposes a DMC (dual monitoring communication) architecture to support self-awareness on the NoC platform. One type of monitoring communication is integrated with data channel, in order to trace the run-time profile of data communication in high-speed on-chip networking. The other type is separate from the data communication, and is needed to report the run-time profile to the supervising monitor. Direct latency monitoring on mesochronous NoC is presented as a case study and is directly traced in the integrated communication with a novel latency monitoring table in each router. The latency information is reported by the separate monitoring communication to the supervising monitor, which reconfigures the system to adjust the latency, for instance by dynamic voltage and frequency scaling. With quantitative evaluation using synthetic traces and real applications, the effectiveness and efficiency of direct latency monitoring with DMC architecture is demonstrated. The area overhead of DMC architecture is estimated to be small in 65nm CMOS technology.
