Abstract
The recent emergence of multicore processor architectures is challenging the on-chip and inter-node communications infrastructure. We present the design of a silicon photonic network-on-chip that can deliver a high-bandwidth, low-latency, and power efficient scalable solution for future chip multiprocessors.
