【摘要】 半导体技术的飞速发展推动SoCs设计进入到片上网络时代。针对片上网络设计所面临的挑战性难题,提出了一种新的基于组件的分层设计方法。该方法遵循垂直的设计流程,为组件复用以及可靠的网内互连提供了良好的支持。其中详细讨论了片上网络从下到上各个层次设计所面临的问题,并提出了相应的解决策略。最后,简单阐述了片上网络有待研究和解决的问题。更多还原

【Abstract】 It is meant to be a short introduction to a new paradigm for networks on chip(NOC) design.We refer the interested reader to an extended overview of this problem and to some recent results in this area in industry and academia.The premises are that a component-based design methodology will prevail in the future,to support component re-use in a plug-and-play fashion.At the same time,NOC will have to provide a functionally-correct,reliable operation of the interacting components.The physical interconnections on chip will be a limiting factor for performance and energy consumption.更多还原
