Network on Chip (NoC) is a new paradigm for designing large and complex systems on chips (SoCs). In this paradigm, a packet switched network is provided for on-chip communication. ...
In previous work a DOCSIS model was added to ‘ns’ to allow simulations to be run to analyze the performance of DOCSIS. These simulations showed that congestion caused by the a...
Physics-based simulation codes are widely used in science and engineering to model complex systems that would be infeasible to study otherwise. Such codes provide the highest-fid...
Retiming is a widely investigated technique for performance optimization. It performs powerful modifications on a circuit netlist. However, often it is not clear, whether the pred...
Transaction level models (TLMs) can be constructed at t levels of abstraction, denoted as untimed (UT), cycle-approximate (CX), and cycle accurate (CA) in this paper. The choice o...
