Abstract— MPLS is becoming an important protocol for intradomain routing. MPLS routers are offered by the major vendors and many ISPs are deploying MPLS in their IP backbones, as...
Path Layout is a fundamental graph problem in label switching protocols. This problem is raised in various protocols such as the traditional ATM protocol and MPLS which is a new l...
This paper introduces a cost-effective technique to deal with CMP coherence protocol requirements from the interconnection network point of view. A mechanism is presented to avoid...
In this paper, we introduce the use of slow-silent virtual channels to reduce the switching power of on-chip networks while keeping the leakage power small. Adding virtual channel...
— Fast and accurate routing congestion estimation is essential for optimizations such as floorplanning, placement, buffering, and physical synthesis that need to avoid routing c...
