Abstract :
High Throughput Octagon architecture to achieve high performance Networks on Chip (NoC) is proposed. The architecture increases the throughput of the network by 17% while preserving the average latency. The area of High Throughput OCTAGON switch is decreased by 18% as compared to OCTAGON switch. The total metal resources required to implement High Throughput OCTAGON design is increased by 8% as compared to the total metal resources required to implement OCTAGON design. The extra power consumption required to achieve the proposed architecture is 2% of the total power consumption of the OCTAGON architecture.
