description

This paper proposes Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based fault-tolerant application mapping on to ZMesh topology based Network-on-Chip (NoC) design. Permanent faults in application cores has been considered and performed application mapping using PSO. The major contribution of this paper is to find out the best position for the spare core to be placed in the network using PSO. Experimentations have been carried out by scaling the ZMesh network size and percentage of network faults. The results show that the proposed approach leads to minimum overhead in communication cost over fault-free result.
