Abstract :
We present a new reliable high-performance interconnection approach destined for complex System on Chip based on the network-centric approach. The originality of our approach is to avoid the lost of data packets, detect routing errors and reduce data packets latency by emptying output buffer when the neighbour router is unavailable. We present the basic concepts of the reliability communication technique and FPGA implementations.
