Analytical Performance Modeling of NoCs under Priority Arbitration and Bursty Traffic
share
Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) used in commercial many-core processors typically incorporate priority arbitration. Moreover, they experience bursty traffic due to application workloads. However, most state-of-the-art NoC analytical performance analysis techniques assume fair arbitration and simple traffic models. To address these limitations, we propose an analytical modeling technique for priority-aware NoCs under bursty traffic. Experimental evaluations with synthetic and bursty traffic show that the proposed approach has less than 10
