Abstract

This paper presents a NoC (network-on-chip) simulation and verification platform (NSVP) based on SystemC. A general NoC node structure is first realized under SystemC, and then connected to form the network. NSVP supports an arbitrary size of mesh and torus topology, and adopts two classic routing algorithms - XY and TXY as the routing algorithm. Users also can develop their own network topology and routing algorithm by modifying the corresponding modules. Then they can verify their design by loading different network traffic patterns to run the simulation. NSVP provides a fast and convenient platform for researching and verification of NoC architecture and routing algorithm.
