As the level of chip integration continues to advance at a fast pace, the desire for efficient interconnects-whether on-chip or off-chip--is rapidly increasing. Traditional interc...
Interconnect networks play a critical role in shared memory multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoC) designs. MPSoC performance and power consumption are greatly affected by the pac...
The Y-architecture for on-chip interconnect is based on pervasive use of 0-, 120-, and 240-degree oriented semi-global and global wiring. Its use of three uniform directions explo...
