Abstract :
In this paper we present a new optical NoC architecture called GTON-XII. Data transmission in GTON XII is packet switching with different optical wavelengths through micro-ring resonators. Simulation results demonstrate GTON-XII is a high-bandwidth, low-cost, low-latency and low power-consuming architecture.
