Implementation and Evaluation of Hard-Error Resilience for 3D Network-on-Chip
OASIS-VP
Overview†
This project is implementation and evaluation of soft error resilience method for 3D Network-on-Chip.
Research Description†

CENTER:

This project is an extended version of OASIS router with two techniques to handle the hard errors:
- Random Access Buffer (RAB): when a fault occurs in a buffer slot, RAB isolates this faulty buffer slot then maintain the operation of the buffer.
- Bypass-link-on-Demand (BLoD): when a fault occurs in a crossbar link, BLoD replaces the faulty link by a back-up link and maintain the connection.
Expected Output†
- Read and understand the architecture and operation of OASIS Network-on-Chip.
- Understand the hard error resilience methods for OASIS Network-on-Chip:
- Random Access Buffer
- Bypass-link-on-Demand
- Run and performance evaluate and extract the results.
- Compare the performance of the original OASIS and the Hard Error Resilience architecture.
