OASIS: Reliable Network-on-Chip Project
Project Overview†
Future embedded and general-purpose processors will be implemented as multicore systems with nanoscale technology consisting of hundreds of processing and storage elements. These multicore systems are emerging as a key design solution for today's nanoelectronics design problems. The interconnection structure supporting such systems will be closer to a sophisticated network than to current bus-based solutions. Such network must provide high throughput and low latency while keeping area and power consumption low.
Our research efforts is about solving several design challenges to enable such new paradigm in Multicore Systems. In particular, we are investigating implementation techniques for basic building blocks, new topologies, flow control techniques, and low-latency, high-throughput/fault-tolerant routing algorithms.
