Towards network-on-chip agreement protocols
Borislav Nikolić, Stefan M. Petters · 2012
Demands for functionality enhancements, cost reductions and power savings clearly suggest the introduction of multi- and many-core platforms in real-time embedded systems. However, when compared to uni-core platforms, the many-cores experience additional problems, namely the lack of scalable coherence mechanisms and the necessity to perform migrations. These problems have to be addressed before such systems can be considered for integration into the real-time embedded domain.
