Abstract :
In this paper, we present a design and implementation of a NoC simulator, which was the subject of the MEMOCODE 2011 hardware/software co-design competition. Our design is based on the GPU platform using CUDA. For this purpose, we used an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 and could achieve a factor of 18 faster over the reference code-platform of the contest.
