A three-dimensional (3D) Network-on-Chip (NoC) enables the design of high performance and low power many-core chips. Existing 3D NoCs are inadequate for meeting the ever-increasing performance requirements of many-core processors since they…
Wireless mesh networks play a critical role in enabling key networking scenarios in beyond-5G (B5G) and 6G networks, including integrated access and backhaul (IAB), multi-hop sidelinks, and V2X. However, it still poses a challenge to…
The rising use of deep learning and other big-data algorithms has led to an increasing demand for hardware platforms that are computationally powerful, yet energy-efficient. Due to the amount of data parallelism in these algorithms,…
Synchronization is likely the most critical performance killer in shared-memory parallel programs. With the rise of multi-core and many-core processors, the relative impact on performance and energy overhead of synchronization is bound to…
On-chip communication infrastructure is a central component of modern systems-on-chip (SoCs), and it continues to gain importance as the number of cores, the heterogeneity of components, and the on-chip and off-chip bandwidth continue to…
The exponential increase in Machine Learning (ML) model size and complexity has driven unprecedented demand for high-performance acceleration systems. As technology scaling enables the integration of thousands of computing elements onto a…
The new generation of domain-specific AI accelerators is characterized by rapidly increasing demands for bulk data transfers, as opposed to small, latency-critical cache line transfers typical of traditional cache-coherent systems. In this…
Approaching ideal wire latency using a network-on-chip (NoC) is an important practical problem for many-core systems, particularly hundreds-cores. Although other researchers have focused on optimizing large meshes, bypassing or speculating…
