The Network-on-Chip (NoC) has been recognized as a paradigm to solve System-on-Chip (SoC) design challenges. The routing algorithm is one of key researches of a NoC design. XY routing algorithm, which is a kind of distributed deterministic routing algorithms, is simple to be implemented. Odd-Even (OE) routing algorithm, whose implementation is complex, is a sort of distributed adaptive routing algorithms with deadlock-free ability. We demonstrate the two routing algorithms in details at first. XY routing algorithm and OE routing algorithm are then simulated and compared based on a 3X3 mesh topology NoC with NIRGAM simulator. The simulation results show that OE routing algorithm, whose P parameter equals to 1.09, increases P parameter greatly as compared to XY routing algorithm, whose P parameter equals to 0.86, in a 2-dimension 3X3 mesh topology NoC, with Constant Bit Rate (CBR) traffic condition of each tail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
