Abstract

With deep submicron scaling and integrating multi and many cores on a single chip, Network-on-Chip (NoC) has been proposed as a scalable and cost-effective solution for inter-core communication. Data exchange between cores does not follow a uniform traffic pattern, which frequently leads to congestion in central routers of a mesh-based NoC. Congestion limits the performance of NoC and results in larger packets transmission latency, higher thermal, and more power consumption. This paper proposes a traffic-balanced selection mechanism to distribute traffic load over the network and mitigate the blocking of packets. The proposed scheme based on congestion information of neighbors routers estimates congestion of all possible minimal paths for a packet, then conduct packet through a non-congested path. It uses congestion information of a stair-shaped region in routing decision. The stair-shaped region provides adequate and up-to-date congestion information by taking into account local and non-local traffic conditions. Experimental results show the proposed method improves both saturation throughput and average latency of 9.91%-17.45% and 30.48%-64.23%, respectively, compared to similar approaches for all considered traffic patterns.
基于网格的NoC架构中流量均衡自适应路由算法的区域选择机制
片上网络(Network-on-Chip, NoC)是一种可扩展且经济高效的核间通信解决方案,具有深度亚微米的可扩展性和多核集成能力。核心之间的数据交换不遵循统一的流量模式,这经常导致基于网格的NoC中心路由器的拥塞。拥塞限制了NoC的性能,导致更大的数据包传输延迟、更高的热量和更多的功耗。本文提出了一种流量均衡选择机制,以在网络中分配流量负载并减轻数据包阻塞。该方案基于邻居路由器的拥塞信息,对数据包进行所有可能最小路径的拥塞估计,然后使数据包通过非拥塞路径。它利用阶梯状区域的拥塞信息进行路由决策。这个楼梯形的区域,考虑到本地和非本地的交通情况,提供足够和最新的交通挤塞资讯。实验结果表明,在所有考虑的流量模式下,与同类方法相比,该方法的饱和吞吐量和平均延迟分别提高了9.91% ~ 17.45%和30.48% ~ 64.23%。
