Abstract :
This paper presents the state-of-the-art in the field of network-on-chip (NoC) benchmarking and comparison. The study identifies the mainstream approaches, how NoCs are currently evaluated, and shows which aspects have been covered and those needing more research effort. No single article can cover all the aspects, and therefore, possibility to compare results from various sources must be ensured by proper scientific reporting. Basic guidelines for achieving that are given.
