Abstract
As technology scales down, the interconnect for on-chip global communication becomes the delay bottleneck. In order to provide well-controlled global wire delay and efficient global communication, a packet switched Network-on-Chip (NoC) architecture was proposed by different authors. In this paper, the NoC system parameters constrained by the interconnections are studied. Predictions on scaled system parameters such as clock frequency, resource size, global communication bandwidth and inter-resource delay are made for future technologies. Based on these parameters, a global wire planning scheme is proposed.
