On-chip networks are critical to the scaling of future multicore processors. The challenge for on-chip network is to reduce the cost including power consumption and area while pro...
Many-core scaling now faces a power wall. The gap between the number of cores that fit on a die and the number that can operate simultaneously under the power budget is rapidly i...
