Effects of Dynamic NoC Resource Management for Mixed Critically Applications
Download SlidesAbstract
The dynamic NoC resource management for mixed criticality applications presented last year has been further elaborated to help minimizing on-chip router requirements, mainly buffer size, thereby improving average case performance and tightness of worst-case analysis. After a short introduction to the dynamic NoC and its protocol, new results will be presented, both for the original NoC and for a commercial many-core system, where resource management was implemented in software.
