Management of communication by on-line routing in new FPGAs with a large amount of logic resources and partial reconfigurability is a new challenging problem. A Network-on-Chip (NoC) typically uses packet routing mechanism, which has often…

Emerging reconfigurable datacenters allow to dynamically adjust the network topology in a demand-aware manner. These datacenters rely on optical switches which can be reconfigured to provide direct connectivity between racks, in the form of…

With technology scaling down, hundreds and thousands processing elements (PEs) can be integrated on a single chip. Network-on-chip (NoC) has been proposed as an efficient solution to handle this distinctive challenge. In this thesis, we…

A new paradigm to support the communication among modules dynamically placed on a reconfigurable device at run-time is presented. Based on the network on chip (NoC) infrastructure, we developed a dynamic communication infrastructure as well…

Modern multicore processors are employing large last-level caches, for example Intel's E7-8800 processor uses 24MB L3 cache. Further, with each CMOS technology generation, leakage energy has been dramatically increasing and hence, leakage…

Clock configuration takes a key role in tuning constrained general-purpose microcontrollers for performance, timing accuracy, and energy efficiency. Configuring the underlying clock tree, however, involves a large parameter space with…
