PROPOSAL AT A GLANCE
Proposal name:
Subject:
Develop design methodologies for Network-on-Chip.
Developing high-performance, low-power Network-on-Chip is the primary target of the project. Different issues , such as interconnects and noise are going to be considered.
The project aims to developing new design methodologies to build networks on-chip and will address the data management, storage and processing functions of smart systems.
Developing figures of merit to measure the efficiency of building network on chip is an important target. Tools should be developed to reduce the design phase of systems-on-chip.
The tools will be used by the designers to reduce the time to market. The tools will help in pre-industrial validation of new design concepts suitable for large-scale production of micro-/nano-scale systems.
The developed tools will enable data management, storage and processing functions of smart micro/nanosystems enabling wireless access and facilitating intelligent networking.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Proposal Outline:
This project aim to develop figures of merit to build Networks-on-Chip. Tools should be developed to define when networks on chips are necessary. Different design methodologies should be enhanced to design effiecint networks on chip. This will be based on the traffic on chip and the size of it. The developed tools will enable data management, storage and processing functions of smart micro/nanosystems enabling wireless access and facilitating intelligent networking.
