The communication performance of link-sharing method of buffer in NoC router: the relation between the communication performance and the number of banks

We have proposed a memory sharing method of the wormhole routed network-on-chip architecture. In our method, a memory is shared between multiple physical links by using the multi-port memory. In this paper, we present the pipeline processing method, and evaluate the communication performance in the...
