Since buffers consume a high percentage of switch power and area, BPS not only improves performance but also helps in reducing power and area. In BPS there are ...

Dec 16, 2010 · An efficient switching technique for NoCs with reduced buffer requirements. Proceedings of the 14th IEEE International Conference on Parallel ...

The first dropped packet appears at a 11.6 higher traffic load. As a consequence, network throughput is increased and the packet latency is kept almost constant ...

In order to operate correctly, a conventional bufferless NoC would need to drop packets, which would be expensive to support, requiring control networks for ...

This paper proposes some alternative and complementary techniques that do not rely on resource replication for packet dropping and shows that by using them, ...

Jan 1, 2011 · In this paper, we propose some alternative and complementary techniques that do not rely on resource replication. By using them, packet dropping is highly ...

Request PDF | How to reduce packet dropping in a bufferless NoC | Networks on-chip (NoCs) interconnect the components located inside a chip.

Routers with large input buffers improve the efficiency of NoC communication while routers with small buffers reduce power consumption but result in high ...

Aug 19, 2008 · In BPS there are no buffers at the switch ports, so packets can not be stopped. If the required output port is busy, the packet will be dropped.

Traditional NoCs use router buffers to reduce the number of dropped or deflected (misrouted) packets. These buffers, however, improve effective bandwidth at ...
