Modern networks-on-chip (NoC) for embedded systems are manufactured by thin design rules; they should be resistant to failures due to the specific aspects of the technology. In the paper we consider failure mitigation approaches, evaluate them for thin design rules. Most fault mitigation approaches are based on reconfiguration of NoC and its main components – routers. We suggest the methodology for development of reconfigurable routers with fault mitigation, estimate them using simulation that enables dynamic failure injection. The proposed method can be used for routers with different structures in NoC with various interconnection graphs.
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.
