A Dynamic NoC Approach for Communication in Reconfigurable Devices

A concept for solving the communication problem among modules dynamically placed on a reconfigurable device is presented. Based on a dynamic network-on-chip (DyNoC) communication infrastructure, components placed at run-time on a device can mutually communicate. A 4x4 dynamic network-on-chip communication infrastructure prototype, implemented in an FPGA occupies only 7% of the device area and can be clocked at 391 MHz.
