This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of data-link layer design issues in the NoC domain. This layer is in charge of implementing a technology-independent approach to communication reliability and of exposing a reliable communication channel in spite of the underlying unreliable medium. The increased sensitivity of interconnects to on-chip noise sources will make an efficient data-link layer architecture critical for the success of NoCs.
The Data Link Layer in NoC Design

Abstract
This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of data-link layer design issues in the NoC domain. This layer is in charge of implementing a technology-independent approach to communication reliability and of exposing a reliable communication channel in spite of the underlying unreliable medium. The increased sensitivity of interconnects to on-chip noise sources will make an efficient data-link layer architecture critical for the success of NoCs.File in questo prodotto:
