Until very recently, microprocessor designs were computation-centric. On-chip
communication was frequently ignored. This was because of fast, single-cycle on-chip …

Cloud computing is an emerging paradigm that provides computing, communication and
storage resources as a service over a network. Communication resources often become a …

Growing transistor counts, limited power budgets, and the breakdown of voltage scaling are
currently conspiring to create a utilization wall that limits the fraction of a chip that can run at …

To alleviate the complex communication problems that arise as the number of on-chip
components increases, network-on-chip (NoC) architectures have been recently proposed …

This paper evaluates the Raw microprocessor. Raw addresses thechallenge of building a
general-purpose architecture that performswell on a larger class of stream and embedded …

As demand for bandwidth increases in systems-on-a-chip and chip multiprocessors,
networks are fast replacing buses and dedicated wires as the pervasive interconnect fabric …

Due to the wire delay constraints in deep submicron technology and increasing demand for
on-chip bandwidth, networks are becoming the pervasive interconnect fabric to connect …

Abstract Networks-on-Chip (NoC) architectures have become the mainstream
communication backbone of high-end processors and systems-on-chip (SoCs) after their …

An integrated circuit includes a plurality of tiles. Each tile includes a processor, a switch
including switching circuitry to forward data over data paths from other tiles to the processor …

Ever-increasing integrated circuit (IC) power densities and peak temperatures threaten
reliability, performance, and economical cooling. To address these challenges, thermal …
