description

Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) have been proposed as an efficient solution to the complex communications on System-on-chip (SoCs). The design flow of network-on-chip (NoCs) include several key issues, and one of them is the decision of where cores have to be topologically mapped. This thesis proposes a new approach to the topological mapping strategy for NoCs. Concretely, we propose a new topological mapping technique for regular and irregular NoC platforms and its application for optimizing application specific NoC based on distributed and source routing.
