A novel network on chip architecture - Stargon

Network-on-Chip (NoC) is the most promising on-chip-interconnection scheme for multi-core processors. In this paper, we propose a novel NoC architecture called Stargon, which is inspired by the Spidergon. A simulation model has been developed to evaluate our architecture. We study the effect of the number of nodes, buffer depth and message length on the performance, and shows that at any situation Stargon is twice of performance compared with Spidergon.
