Mesh-of-tree deterministic routing for network-on-chip architecture
Santanu Kundu, Santanu Chattopadhyay · 2008
Network-on-Chip (NoC) is a new paradigm for designing future SoCs. It supports high degree of reusability, scalability, and parallelism in communication. Here, we present Mesh-of-Tree (MoT) based deterministic routing for NoC architecture. MoT interconnection has the advantage of having small diameter as well as large bisection width. The routing algorithm ensures that the packet will always reach the destination through the shortest path and it is deadlock and livelock free.
