— With the transition to deep submicron technologies the density of on-chip interconnect lines has increased, together with the switching rate of the signals propagating along th...
A growing number of applications, with diverse requirements, are integrated on the same System on Chip (SoC) in the form of hardware and software Intellectual Property (IP). The d...
—The physical performance of a 3-Dimensional Network-on-Chip (NoC) mesh architecture employing Through Silicon Vias (TSV) for vertical connectivity is investigated with a cycle-a...
