Evaluating application mapping using network simulation
Timo Salminen, Juha-Pekka Soininen · 2004
The quality of the mapping decisions made when selecting computation and storage resources for different parts of an application to be executed on a network on chip (NoC) has a high impact on the overall system performance. A network simulator is needed to be able to test different mapping configurations. This paper presents such a simulator and demonstrates how it can be used to compare different kinds of application mappings.
