Conventional snoopy-based chip multiprocessors take an aggressive approach broadcasting snoop requests to all nodes. In addition each node checks all received requests. This appro...
Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures provide a good way of realizing efficient interconnections and largely alleviate the limitations of bus-based solutions. NoC has emerged as a so...
