Abstract :
The Network-on-Chip has been recognized as a paradigm to solve System-on-Chip (SoC) design challenges. The routing algorithm is one of key researches of a NoC design. Its importance and effect on the performance of the network is accordingly cardinal. High-performance, load-balance, deadlock-free and livelock-free, fault-tolerant are the desirable properties of a routing algorithm for NoC. In this paper, we summarize routing algorithms used for NoC by simply comparison and analysis,and give the merits and demerits of some routing algorithms.
