Prevention flow-control for low latency torus Networks-on-Chip
Arpit Joshi, Madhu Mutyam · 2011
The challenge for on-chip networks is to provide low latency communication in a very low power budget. To reduce the latency and keep the simplicity of a mesh network, torus network is proposed. As torus networks have inherent circular dependency, additional effort is needed to prevent deadlock, even if deadlock free routing algorithms are used.
