Dynamically reconfigurable NoC for reconfigurable MPSoC

The performance of a multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) is not only dependent on the computational capabilities of on-chip processors but also depends on the communication medium connecting them. This has shifted the emphasis from computation to communication architectural design. In this paper, a dynamically reconfigurable network-on-chip (NoC) architecture has been proposed for reconfigurable MPSoC, as a solution to the increased communication needs, keeping low power, quality of service (QoS) and scalability of network in mind
