Performance Evaluation of the On-Chip Communications in a Network-on-Chip System

Hariharan, Sriram

Abstract Details

2005, MS, University of Cincinnati, Engineering : Computer Engineering.
Future system-on-chip (SoC) designs require predictable, scalable and reusable on-chip interconnect architecture to increase reliability and productivity. Current bus-based interconnect architectures are inherently non-scalable, less adaptable for reuse and their reliability decreases with system size. To overcome these problems, it has been proposed to build a message passing network for on-chip communication – network-on-chip (NoC). We aim to develop a performance analysis model for the on-chip communication of a NoC system. We will use a stochastic modeling technique for performance analysis of the on-chip communication network. In our approach, the analytic model is developed using queuing theory. The router of a NoC system consists of buffers with different quality of service (QoS). The buffers can be modeled as priority queues. Their performance can be analyzed using the principles of queuing theory. The analytical results thus calculated are verified with the corresponding simulation results.
