Invasive NoCs and Memory Hierarchies for Run-Time Adaptive MPSoCs (B05)

Investigated are invasive Networks-on-Chip (iNoCs) with the goal of increasing the predictability of the execution properties of concurrent applications. Here, the hardware support inside the iNoC for mapping actor-oriented task models to a NoC is needed. Tighter bounds for communication latency shall be feasible through novel circuit switching concepts. Additionally, other non-functional properties such as security, fault tolerance, and energy consumption will be investigated. Finally, novel NoC topologies (i.e. 3D NoCs) and cache coherence are topics of investigation.
