With the ever increasing industrial demand for bigger, faster and more efficient systems, a
growing number of cores is integrated on a single chip. Additionally, their performance is …

We introduce an empirical method for power consumption modeling of analog components
at system level. The principal step of this method uses neural networks to approximate the …

Although a significant amount of theoretical work supports the potential of NoC architectures,
such results need to be demonstrated by actual implementations before the NoC paradigm …

Network-on-chip (NoC)-based communication represents a promising solution to complex
on-chip communication problems. Due to their regular structure, mesh-like NoC …
