Energy-aware Mapping for Tree-based NoC Architectures by Recursive Bipartitioning
In this paper,we present an approach to map intellectual property (IP) cores onto tree based Network-on-chip (NoC) architecture such that the total communication energy is minimized. We first formulate the problem of energy-aware mapping,and then propose a recursive bipartitioning algorithm to solve it.The proposed technique is an efficient divide-and-conquer approach,based on the Kernighan-Lin mincut bisection heuristic. Experimental results show that the recursive bipartitioning method is very fast and effective,so it is suited to both quick design space exploration and producing excellent results.
