The Network-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm has emerged as a scalable interconnection infrastructure for modern massive multicore chips. However, with growing levels of integration, the traditional NoCs suffer from high latency and energy dissipation in on-chip data transfer due to conventional multi-hop metal/dielectric based interconnects. Three-dimensional integration, on-chip photonics, RF, and wireless links have been proposed as radical low-power and low-latency alternatives to the conventional planar wire-based designs. Wireless NoCs with Carbon Nanotube (CNT) or millimeter (mm)-wave metal antennas are shown to outperform traditional wire based NoCs significantly in achievable data rate and energy dissipation. However, such emerging and transformative technologies can be prone to high levels of failures due to various issues related to manufacturing challenges and integration. On the other hand, several naturally occurring complex networks such as colonies of microbes and the World Wide Web are known to be inherently robust against high rates of failures and harsh environments. This thesis advocates adoption of such complex network based architectures to design wireless NoCs. This thesis presents a detailed performance analysis of small-world network enabled wireless NoC architectures in terms of achievable bandwidth, energy dissipation, thermal profiles and fault tolerance. The wireless NoC outperforms traditional wireline mesh architecture in terms of all the above-mentioned performance metrics. It also minimizes the effect of wireless link failures on the performance of the NoC. Through cycle accurate simulations it is shown that the wireless NoC architectures inspired by natural complex networks perform better than their conventional wired counterparts even in the presence of a high degree of link failures.

Sustainable Wireless Network-on-Chip Architectures focuses on developing novel Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM) and Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) algorithms that exploit the advantages inherent in WiNoC architectures. The methodologies proposed—combined with extensive experimental validation—collectively represent efforts to create a sustainable NoC architecture for future many-core chips. Current research trends show a necessary paradigm shift towards green and sustainable computing. As implementing massively parallel energy-efficient CPUs and reducing resource consumption become standard, and their speed and power continuously increase, energy issues become a significant concern. The need for promoting research in sustainable computing is imperative. As hundreds of cores are integrated in a single chip, designing effective packages for dissipating maximum heat is infeasible. Moreover, technology scaling is pushing the limits of affordable cooling, thereby requiring suitable design techniques to reduce peak temperatures. Addressing thermal concerns at different design stages is critical to the success of future generation systems. DTM and DVFS appear as solutions to avoid high spatial and temporal temperature variations among NoC components, and thereby mitigate local network hotspots. Defines new complex, sustainable network-on-chip architectures to reduce network latency and energy Develops topology-agnostic dynamic thermal management and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling techniques Describes joint strategies for network- and core-level sustainability Discusses novel algorithms that exploit the advantages inherent in Wireless Network-on-Chip architectures

The increasing demand of processing a higher number of applications and related data on computing platforms has resulted in reliance on multi-/many-core chips as they facilitate parallel processing. However, there is a desire for these platforms to be energy-efficient and reliable, and they need to perform secure computations for the interest of the whole community. This book provides perspectives on the aforementioned aspects from leading researchers in terms of state-of-the-art contributions and upcoming trends.

In at least a decade chip multiprocessors (CMP) have been dominating new commercialreleases due to computational advantages of parallel computing cores on a single chip. Networkon Chip (NoC) has emerged as an interconnection network of CMPs. But significant bandwidththat is required for multicore chips is becoming a bottleneck in the traditional (electrical)network on chip, due to delays caused by long wires in the electric NoC. Integration of photoniclinks with traditional electronic interconnects proposes a promising solution for this challenge.Since there are numerous design parameters for opto-electrical network architectures, an accurateevaluation is needed to study the impact of each design parameter on network performance, andto provide the most suitable network for a given set of applications, a power or a performancegoal. In this thesis, we present a prediction modeling technique for design space exploration ofan opto-electrical network on chip. Our proposed model accurately predicts delay (includesnetwork packet latency and network contention delay) and energy (includes static and dynamicenergy consumption) of the network. Specifically, this work addresses the fundamental challengeof accurate estimation of desired metrics without having to incur high simulation cost ofnumerous configurations of the optical network on chip architecture. We reduce the number ofrequired simulations by accurately selecting the parameters that have the most impact on thenetwork. Furthermore, we sparsely and randomly sample the designs build using theseparameters from an Optical Network on Chip (ONoC) design space, and simulate only thesampled designs. We validate our model with three different applications executing on a large setof network configurations in a large optical network on chip design space. We achieve averageerror rates (root relative squared error) as low as 5.5% for the delay and 3.05% for the energyconsumption.

[2]. The Cell Processor from Sony, Toshiba and IBM (STI) [3], and the Sun UltraSPARC T1 (formerly codenamed Niagara) [4] signal the growing popularity of such systems. Furthermore, Intel’s very recently announced 80-core TeraFLOP chip [5] exemplifies the irreversible march toward many-core systems with tens or even hundreds of processing elements. 1.2 The Dawn of the Communication-Centric Revolution The multi-core thrust has ushered the gradual displacement of the computati- centric design model by a more communication-centric approach [6]. The large, sophisticated monolithic modules are giving way to several smaller, simpler p- cessing elements working in tandem. This trend has led to a surge in the popularity of multi-core systems, which typically manifest themselves in two distinct incarnations: heterogeneous Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoC) and homogeneous Chip Multi-Processors (CMP). The SoC philosophy revolves around the technique of Platform-Based Design (PBD) [7], which advocates the reuse of Intellectual Property (IP) cores in flexible design templates that can be customized accordingly to satisfy the demands of particular implementations. The appeal of such a modular approach lies in the substantially reduced Time-To- Market (TTM) incubation period, which is a direct outcome of lower circuit complexity and reduced design effort. The whole system can now be viewed as a diverse collection of pre-existing IP components integrated on a single die.

Today’s networks are evolving rapidly, and there are several developing areas and applications. These include heterogeneous networking supported by recent technological advances in power wireless communications, along with silicon integration of various functionalities such as sensing, communications, intelligence and actuations, which is emerging as a critically important disruptive computer class based on a new platform, networking structure and interface that enables novel, low-cost and high-volume applications. However, implemeting these applications has sometimes been difficult due to interconnection problems. As such, different networks need to collaborate, and wired and next-generation wireless systems need to be integrated in order to develop high-performance computing solutions to address the problems arising from these networks’ complexities. This ebook presents the latest research findings, as well as theoretical and practical perspectives on the innovative methods and development techniques related to the emerging areas of information networking and applications
