The role of the operating system (OS) in managing shared resources such as CPU time, memory, peripherals, and even energy is well motivated and understood [23]. Unfortunately, one...
Networks on chip (NoCs) draw on concepts inherited from distributed systems and computer networks subject areas to interconnect IP cores in a structured and scalable way. Congesti...
