Abstract :
This paper proposes a method to guarantee bandwidth or latency of network-on-chip. Compared with circuit-switch method, this method can guarantee the latency between one flitpsilas generation and its reception and support a wide range of traffic types. Also, a maximum latency formula is developed. Results show that this method guarantees the bandwidth and latency well and is low-cost.
