Title
Accurate Performance Bounds Calculation for Dynamic Voltage-Freq Islands in Best Effort NoCs
Abstract
Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) is a technique used to meet the power budget limitations in multi-core embedded systems. DVFS is applied to Networks-on-Chip (NoC) as a major contributor of the dissipated power on-chip. We propose an analytic model to accurately calculate the performance bounds on the best effort NoC with multiple voltage-frequency islands. The model supports dual-port buffer or handshaking mechanisms. We also suggest a method to set the frequencies of the islands to decrease the dissipated power. We examine our method and models and show their effectiveness.
