Poster : R-Bus - A Resource Bus for Modular System Design

As the number of buses increase substantially in multi-core SoC designs, the bus planning problem has become the dominant factor in determining the performance and power consumption of SoC designs. To cope with the bus planning problem, it is desirable ...

A high performance communication architecture, SAMBA-bus, is proposed in this paper. In SAMBA-bus architecture, multiple compatible bus transactions can be performed simultaneously with only a single bus access grant from the bus arbiter. Experimental ...

Single bus multiprocessor systems do not scale well due to the limited bandwidth of the bus. Hierarchical bus interconnections are scalable, but unfortunately the top level bus becomes a bottleneck for larger systems. The authors present a novel ...
