Abstract :
Multi-core and heterogeneous processor systems are widely used now a days. Even mobile devices have two or more cores to improve their performance. While these two technologies are widely used, it is not clear which one would perform better and which hardware configuration is optimal for a specific target domain. In this paper, we proposed an interconnect architecture Multi-core processor with Hybrid network(MPHN). The performance of MPHN has been compared with: (i) Multi-core processor with internal network, and (ii) Multi-core processor with Ring network. This architecture substantially minimizes the communication delay in multicore processors.
