A Dynamically Reconfigurable Packet-Switched Network-on-Chip

Thilo Pionteck, Carsten Albrecht, Roman Koch

Abstract

This paper presents the design of an adaptable NoC for FPGA based dynamically reconfigurable SoCs. At runtime, switches can be added or removed from the network, allowing to adapt the NoC to the number, size and location of currently configured hardware modules. By using dynamic routing tables, reconfiguration can be done without stopping or stalling the NoC. The proposed architecture avoids the limitations of bus-based interconnection schemes which are often applied in partially dynamically reconfigurable FPGA designs.
