SUMMARY:Flow-Aware Allocation for On-Chip Networks - Arnab Banerjee
DTSTART:20090507T100000Z

DESCRIPTION:Current Virtual-Channel routers disregard potentially useful i
 nformation \nabout on-chip communication flows. This often leads to ineffi
 cient \nresource utilisation in existing Networks-on-Chips for flow-based 
 \ncommunication patterns. The flow-based traffic exhibited by forthcoming 
 \napplications requiring large streaming datasets (sophisticated graphical
  \ninterfaces\, mobile connectivity\, scientific applications\, etc.) lead
  us \nto propose flow additions to a Virtual-Channel network. Our flow-bas
 ed \nrefinements infer the presence of\, and allocate resources to flows \
 nrather than individual packets. As a consequence\, we are able to \ndemon
 strate speedups of close to 40% for synthetic flow-based traffic \npattern
