Design Considerations for Optically Connected Systems on Chip

This paper addresses some fundamental issues relating to the design of systems on chip that utilize optical interconnects. We present an information theoretical model for assessing trade-offs between global and local partitions in these systems, and evaluate interconnect topology synthesis and application mapping techniques for digital signal processing (DSP) applications in these systems.
