Status Data and Communication Aspects in Dynamically Clustered Network-on-Chip Monitoring

Status Data and Communication Aspects in Dynamically Clustered Network-on-Chip Monitoring

Monitoring and diagnostic systems are required in modern Network-on-Chip implementations to assure high performance and reliability. A dynamically clustered NoC monitoring structure for traffic and fault monitoring is presented. It is a distributed monitoring approach which does not require any cent...
