▼ Over the past decade, the processing speed requirement of embedded systems has steadily increased. Since faster clocking of a single processor can no longer be considered to increase the processing speed of the
system (due to overheating and other constraints), the development of multiprocessors on a single
chip has stepped up to meet the demand. One approach has been to design and develop a multiprocessing platform to handle a large set of homogeneous applications. However, this development has been slow due to the intractable design space, which results when both the hardware and software are required to be adjustable to meet the needs of the dissimilar applications. A different approach has been to limit the number of targeted applications to be similar in some sense. By limiting the number of targeted applications to a cohesive set, the design space can become manageable. This thesis proposes a framework for a multiprocessing
system-on-
chip (MPSoC), consisting of a cohesive hardware and software architecture intended specifically for problems that are stream-oriented (e.g., video streaming). The framework allows the hardware and software to be customized to fit a specific application within the cohesive set, while narrowing the design space to a manageable set of design parameters. In addition, this thesis designs and develops an analytic model, using a discrete-time Markov chain, to measure the performance of an MPSoC framework implementation when the number of concurrent processing elements is varied. Finally, a chaotic simulated annealing algorithm was developed to determine an optimal mapping and scheduling of tasks to processing elements within the MPSoC.

▼ Network-on-
Chip (NOC) based designs have garnered significant attention from both
researchers and industry over the past several years. The analysis of these designs has
focused on broad topics such as NOC component micro-architecture, fault-tolerant
communication, and
system memory architecture. Nonetheless, the design of lowlatency,
high-bandwidth, low-power and area-efficient NOC is extremely complex due
to the conflicting nature of these design objectives. Benchmarks are an indispensable
tool in the design process; providing thorough measurement and fair comparison
between designs in order to achieve optimal results (i.e performance, cost, quality of
service).
This research proposes a benchmarking platform called NoCBench for evaluating
the performance of Network-on-
chip. Although previous research has proposed standard
guidelines to develop benchmarks for Network-on-
Chip, this work moves forward and
proposes a
System-C based simulation platform for
system-level design exploration. It
will provide an initial set of synthetic benchmarks for on-
chip network interconnection
validation along with an initial set of standardized processing cores, NOC components,
and
system-wide services.
The benchmarks were constructed using synthetic applications described by Task
Graphs For Free (TGFF) task graphs extracted from the E3S benchmark suite. Two
benchmarks were used for characterization: Consumer and Networking. They are
characterized based on throughput and latency. Case studies show how they can be used
to evaluate metrics beyond throughput and latency (i.e. traffic distribution).
The contribution of this work is two-fold: 1) This study provides a methodology
for benchmark creation and characterization using NoCBench that evaluates important
metrics in NOC design (i.e. end-to-end packet delay, throughput). 2) The developed
full-
system simulation platform provides a complete environment for further benchmark
characterization on NOC based MpSoC as well as
system-level design space
exploration.

▼ Com a evolução dos processos de fabricação de circuitos, tem sido possível a integração de sistemas completos em um único chip, os quais são construídos utilizando-se blocos de silício reutilizáveis (núcleos). Com as novas tecnologias de integração, será possível construir sistema com várias dezenas a centenas de núcleos em um mesmo chip. Tais sistemas terão alto poder de processamento, mas irá requerer estruturas de comunicação reutilizáveis com desempenho escalável, o que não é possível de ser obtido com as arquiteturas usadas atualmente, baseadas no barramento. É consenso na comunidade acadêmica e na indústria que a melhor solução para esse problema é baseada em estruturas de interconexão com canais chaveados por roteadores as chamadas Redes-em-Chip ou NoCs (Networks-on-Chip). Atualmente, diversos grupos de pesquisa trabalham investigando diferentes aspectos sobre NoCs e a grande maioria desses trabalhos utiliza ambientes de simulação para exploração arquitetural e avaliação de desempenho. No entanto, em modelos detalhados e com precisão de ciclo, o tempo de simulação é bastante alto, o que limita a quantidade de ciclos a serem simulados. Após a validação e a avaliação baseada em simulação, usualmente, realiza-se a síntese da NoC em FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) para realizar a sua validação física. Para tal, é necessário construir um sistema com núcleos conectados à rede e que produzam o tráfego que permitam validar a arquitetura implementada. Este projeto insere-se nesse contexto e busca desenvolver uma infra-estrutura de apoio à pesquisa sobre NoCs por meio da disponibilização de geradores de tráfego sintetizáveis para validação física e para a avaliação de desempenho de NoCs em dispositivos do tipo FPGA. A idéia é que essa infra-instrutora facilite a validação da rede e a realização de experimentos de análise de desempenho mais rapidamente e com maior precisão do que aqueles realizados em ambientes de simulação. Neste trabalho, foram desenvolvidos componentes de hardware e de software para a construção da plataforma proposta
With the evolution of the circuit manufacturer processes is becoming possible to integrate complete systems in a single chip, which are built of reusable silicon-based blocks (cores). With the advent of new integration technologies, it will be possible to build a system with several tens to hundreds of cores in the same chip. Such systems will have a higher processing power, but will require reusable communication structures with scalable performance, which is not possible to be obtained with the current bus-based architectures. The consensus in the academic community and industry is that the best solution for this problem is based on interconnection architectures with switching channels by routers the so called chip-networks or NoCs (Networks-on-Chip). Nowadays, several groups of research investigate different aspects of NoCs and the majority of the work being done uses simulation environments for architectural exploration and performance evaluation. However, in detailed models…

▼ With increased density of modern
System on
Chip(SoC) communication between nodes has become a major problem. Network on
Chip is a novel on
chip communication paradigm to solve this by using highly scalable and efficient packet switched network. The addition of intelligent networking on the
chip adds to the chip’s power consumption thus making management of communication power an interesting and challenging research problem. While VLSI techniques have evolved over time to enable power reduction in the circuit level, the highly dynamic nature of modern large SoC demand more than that. This dissertation explores some innovative dynamic solutions to manage the ever increasing communication power in the post sub-micron era.
Today’s highly integrated SoCs require great level of cross layer optimizations to provide maximum efficiency. This dissertation aims at the dynamic power management problem from top. Starting with a
system level distribution and management down to microarchitecture enhancements were found necessary to deliver maximum power efficiency. A distributed power budget sharing technique is proposed. To efficiently satisfy the established power budget, a novel flow control and throttling technique is proposed. Finally power efficiency of underlying microarchitecture is explored and novel buffer and link management techniques are developed.
All of the proposed techniques yield improvement in power-performance efficiency of the NoC infrastructure.

▼ Traditionally, the computing
system security has been tackled as a software-level problem. With the globalization of the modern semiconductor industry, the design of a
system may involve different parties, especially for the design of
system-on-
chip (SoC) where the high complexity of the design has pushed designers towards using the third-party components that may have been modified with malicious additions without notice of the designer.Such a malicious modification (known as hardware Trojan) may be very small and can escape the scrutiny of the offline circuit-level testing and appear in the final product, which creates a new class of threats that have to be addressed at the hardware level and at the runtime.For SoCs, one of the most vulnerable components is the communication sub-
system, called network-on-
chip (NoC). NoC is able to access all components in the
system and can be an easy target for varied attacks.This thesis aims at the hardware Trojan inside the router of a NoC. When activated, the Trojan can modify passing packets for two different purposes: 1) hijacking packets to harvest information carried by the packet; 2) manipulating the packet to alter the packet data. Both attacks can be tackled by the authentication.But unlike the software level authentication designs in the traditional networking
system, the authentication in NoC has on-
chip overhead issues.The thesis investigates three designs: one for packet hijacking attack detection, one for packet integrity attack detection, and one for Trojan location detection. Each design has a different dominant overhead issue. We, therefore, have a different optimization objective in the design.For the packet hijacking attack detection, we target the overhead on the
chip cost and we present a customization design. For the packet data integrity authentication, the main concern is the bandwidth consumption caused by the large tag size and we introduce a progressive authentication scheme to reduce the bandwidth overhead. For the Trojan location detection, we propose a dynamic search algorithm to minimize the energy consumption.We have conducted a range of extensive experiments on each design, which demonstrate the effectiveness of our design approaches.

▼ Electromagnetic waves in the terahertz spectral range have gained significant research focus due to their applications in various fields of science. To effectively
generate and integrate terahertz waves in systems, appropriate waveguide
design is critical. Conventionally waveguides have been used to control the propagation
of electromagnetic waves. A waveguide with low loss and dispersion is always
preferred. But achieving these characteristics is quite challenging especially if operating
in the terahertz spectral range. There are inherent material and geometric
limitations that exist for terahertz waveguides. It is therefore important to optimize
the design to enable their use in applications efficiently. This thesis investigates the characteristics of three primary terahertz waveguides
based on the underlying theory and results obtained from simulations. The three
waveguides are parallel-plate waveguides, two-wire waveguides, and coplanar striplines.
The work in this thesis mostly focuses on coplanar striplines, optimal for building a
highly efficient commercial and portable terahertz
system-on-
chip (TSOC). The contribution of the thesis is around the use of different types of passive components
mounted on a thin commercial Silicon Nitride membrane. A bias tee is introduced
which is a combination of interdigitated electrodes and a meander inductor.
The length of the interdigitated electrodes and the gap between them are 55 um and
5 um, respectively. The S21 parameter for this structure ranges from -24 dB/mm at
near-zero frequencies to -0.8 dB/mm at 1 THz. This indicates that the designed bias
tee can appropriately block low frequencies. Split-ring resonators are also used to act
as band-stop filters. The resonant frequency of the resonator depends on the radii of
the split-rings. In the optimized design, the internal radius of the outer ring is 25 um
and the external radius of the inner ring is 20 um. This results in a narrowband
band-stop filter with its resonant frequency centered at 701 GHz. The optimized
final TSOC design discussed in this work uses these passive components placed on
the Silicon Nitride membrane and is shown to have a total loss that is 3 dB/mm less
than any of the previous work for terahertz frequencies.

▼ The concept full
chip integration of circuits has gained traction over the years with the push towards
system-on-
chip (SoC) designs which serve the niche for portable, low-power devices from the handheld category to wearables. As such, there is a growing trend towards the integration of Linear Dropout (LDO) regulators, which are a pivotal part of the power systems in such devices. However, removing the large output capacitor in LDOs to allow for full
chip integration comes at a cost as it leads to higher overshoots and undershoots during load transients and degrades AC stability.
This work presents the design of an output capacitor-less LDO regulator which uses a bang-bang technique for reduction of overshoot and undershoot during load transients. This technique provides an alternate faster loop for transient compensation while keeping power consumption low. Also, an error amplifier which uses a combination of miller compensation and quality factor reduction technique is also employed to ensure AC stability across the load range. At an output voltage of 1.1 V, the regulator proves to be stable at loads ranging from 0-100 mA with a 100 pF load capacitance. A quiescent current consumption of 16.5 uA and a dropout voltage of 200 mV ensure a high power efficiency of 84.6%. From simulations, the worst case overshoot and undershoot of the regulator are 108 mV and 88 mV respectively with a 1% settling time of 3.2 us and a load regulation of 0.11 mV/mA. The regulator is designed and implemented fully on-
chip in IBM 130nm technology.

▼ Health-care delivery in developing countries has many challenges because they do not have enough resources for meeting the healthcare needs and they lack testing lab infras- tructures in communities. It has been proven that Point-Of-Care (POC) testing can be considered as one of the ways to resolve the crisis in healthcare delivery in these com- munities. The POC testing is a mission critical processes in which the patient conduct tests outside of laboratory environment and it needs a secure communication system of architecture support which the research refers as POCT system Almost every ten years there will be a new radio access technology (RAT) is released in the wireless communication system evolution which is primarily driven by the 3GPP standards organisation. It is challenging to develop a predictable communication sys- tem in an environment of frequent changes originated by the 3GPP and the wireless operators. The scalable and expandable network architecture is needed for cost-effective network management, deployment and operation of the POC devices. Security mecha- nisms are necessary to address the specific threats associated with POCT system. Se- curity mechanisms are necessary to address the specific threats associated with POCT system. The POCT system communication must provide secure storage and secure com- munication to maintain patient data privacy and security. The Federal Drug Admin- istration (FDA) reports the leading causes of defects and system failures in medical devices are caused by gaps between the requirements, implementation and testing. The research was conducted, and technical research contributions are made to resolve the issues and challenges related to the POCT system. A communication protocol implemented at the application level, independent of radio access technologies. A new methodology was created by combining Easy Approach to Requirement Specifications (EARS) methodology and Use Case Maps (UCM) model which is a new approach and it addresses the concerns raised by the FDA. Secure cloud architecture was created which is a new way of data storage and security algorithms models were designed to address the security threats in the POCT system. The security algorithms, secure cloud architecture and the communication protocol coexist together to provide Radio access technology Independent Secure and Expandable (RISE) POCT system. These are the contributions to new knowledge that came out of the research. The research was conducted with a team of experts who are the subject matter experts in the areas such as microfluidics, bio-medical, mechanical engineering and medicine.

▼ The bandwidth requirement for each link on a network-on-chip (NoC) may differ based on topology and traffic properties of the IP cores. Available bandwidth on an asynchronous NoC link will also vary depending on the wire length between sender and receiver. This work explores the benefit to NoC performance, area, and energy when this property is used to optimize bandwidth on specific links based on its bandwidth required by a target SoC design. Three asynchronous routers were designed for implementing of asynchronous NoCs. Simple routing scheme and single-flit packet format lead to performance- and area-efficient router designs. Their performance was evaluated in consideration of link wire delay. Comprehensive analysis of pipeline latch insertion in asynchronous communication links is performed in regard to link bandwidth. Optimal placement of pipeline latch for maximizing benefit to increase of bandwidth is described. Specific methods are proposed for performance, area and energy optimization, respectively. Performance optimization is achieved by increasing bandwidth of high trafficked and high utilized links in an NoC, as inserting pipeline latches in those links. Through decrease of bandwidth of links with low traffic and low utilization by halving data-path width, reduction of wire area of an NoC is accomplished. Energy optimization is performed using wide spacing between wires in links with high energy consumption. An analytical model for asynchronous link bandwidth estimation is presented. It is utilized to deploy NoC optimization methods as identifying adequate links for each optimization method. Energy and latency characteristics of an asynchronous NoC are compared to a similarly-designed synchronous NoC. The results indicate that the asynchronous network has lower energy, and link-specific bandwidth optimization has improved NoC performance. Evaluation of proposed optimization methods by employing to an asynchronous NoC shows achievements of performance enhancement, wire area reduction and wire energy saving.

▼ Neurological diseases are a major challenge to reach new therapies. However,
physiological signals that regulate neurodegeneration in the central nervous
system
(CNS) are still little known since there is no suitable in vitro model for studying the
basis of localized cells and molecules. Here this dissertation presents the development of
biomimetic microsystems that reconstitute neurophysiologically important functional
brain and neurovascular interface in the CNS.
The brain organs-on-chips can recapitulate pharmacological responses and
complex interactions between different types of cells that are mediated by the
extracellular matrix and intercellular junctions within the organ model. Since the
developed microsystems have a biomimetic tissue structure, it is possible to more
accurately function and simulate the delivery and penetration of the drug compound in
vivo than the 2D cell monolayer in the conventional culture model or the prior
microfluidics.
The developed brain
chip is composed of four culture chambers with 10
aggregate traps and multi-electrode arrays enable electrical stimulation for 40 neuronal
aggregates as well as drug stimulation. Uniform 150 μm aggregates from the microwell
can be cultured for 4 weeks. This
system developed for the study of CNS myelin
formation showed that the 10Hz of electrical stimulation for the promotion of
myelination was successfully confirmed with 500 nM retinoic acid treatment results in
the automatic image analysis.
iii
The other developed blood-brain barrier (BBB)
chip consists of 4 × 4
microfluidic channel arrays and 16 channel multi-electrode arrays, able to electrically
analyze 16 sites. Co-culture BBB-on-a-
chip contains neurovascular endothelium
separated from primary astrocyte by a porous membrane that allows cell-cell interactions
through the membrane. In this platform, the effects of astrocyte-coculture, extracellular
matrix, and in vivo shear stress level on barrier permeability were characterized through
TEER measurements and dextran permeability assays.
Also, despite the presence of BBB, monocyte infiltration into the CNS was
observed by monocyte chemotactic protein (CCL2), which corresponds to the early
event of brain injury. Finally, the
system developed to address these pharmacological
problems for drug development showed how drugs work in brain vessels (histamine) and
brain tissues (tetrodotoxin), as well as delivering drugs from brain vessels to brain tissue
(atenolol).

▼ L'évolution de Systems-on-
Chip (SoCs) est rapide et le nombre des processeurs augmente conduisant à la transition des les plates-formes Multi-core vers les Manycore. Dans telles plates-formes, l'architecture d'interconnexion a également décalé des bus traditionnels vers les Réseaux sur puce (NoC) afin de faire face à la mise en échelle. Les NoC permettent aux processeurs d'échanger des informations avec la mémoire et les périphériques lors de l'exécution d'une tâche et d'effectuer plusieurs communications en parallèle. Les plates-formes basées sur un NoC sont aussi présentes dans des systèmes embarqués, caractérisés par des exigences comme la prédictibilité, la sécurité et la criticité mixte. Afin de fournir telles fonctionnalités dans les plates-formes commerciales existantes, il faut prendre en considération le NoC qui est un élément clé ayant un impact important sur les performances d'un SoC. Une tâche échange des informations à travers du NoC et par conséquent, son temps d'exécution dépend du temps de transmission des flux qu'elle génère. En calculant le temps de transmission de pire cas (WCTT) des flux dans le NoC, une étape est faite vers le calcul du temps d'exécution de pire cas (WCET) d'une tâche. Ceci contribue à la prédictibilité globale du système. De plus, en prenant en compte les politiques d'arbitrage dans le NoC, il est possible de fournir des garanties de sécurité contre des tâches compromises qui pourraient essayer de saturer les ressources du système (attaque DoS). Dans les systèmes critiques de sécurité, une distinction des tâches par rapport à leur niveau de criticité, permet aux tâches de criticité mixte de coexister et d'exécuter en harmonie. De plus, ça permet aux tâches critiques de maintenir leurs temps d'exécution au prix de tâches de faible criticité qui seront ralenties ou arrêtées. Cette thèse vise à fournir des méthodes et des mécanismes dans le but de contribuer aux axes de prédictibilité, de sécurité et de criticité mixte dans les architectures Manycore basées sur Noc. En outre, l'incitation consiste à relever conjointement les défis dans ces trois axes en tenant compte de leur impact mutuel. Chaque axe a été étudié individuellement, mais très peu de recherche prend en compte leur interdépendance. Cette fusion des aspects est de plus en plus intrinsèque dans des domaines tels que Internet-of-Things, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), véhicules connectés et autonomes qui gagnent de l'élan. La raison en est leur haut degré de connectivité qui crée une grande surface d'exposition ainsi que leur présence croissante qui rend l'impact des attaques sévère et visible. Les contributions de cette thèse consistent en une méthode pour fournir une prédictibilité aux flux dans le NoC, un mécanisme pour la sécurité du NoC et une boîte à outils pour la génération de trafic utilisée pour l'analyse comparative. La première contribution est une adaptation de l'approche de la trajectoire traditionnellement utilisée dans les réseaux avioniques (AFDX) pour calculer le WCET. Dans cette thèse, nous identifions…

▼ Com o advento dos processos submicrônicos, a capacidade de integração de transistores numa mesma pastilha de silício atingiu níveis que possibilitaram a construção dos sistemas com múltiplos processadores num chip (MPSoCs, do inglês MultiProcessor System-on-Chip). Essa possibilidade de integração permite inserir dezenas de Elementos de Processamento (EPs) nos circuitos integrados atuais, e já se projeta centenas de EPs para os sistemas da próxima década (ITRS, 2011). Nesse cenário, um dos principais desafios se refere ao serviço de interconexão dos EPs, que deve apresentar um desempenho de comunicação necessário para as aplicações em execução sem comprometer as limitações de consumo de área e energia do circuito. Nos primeiros sistemas multiprocessados, com poucos nodos, arquiteturas baseadas em barramento foram suficientes para cumprir esses requisitos. Porém, o número de elementos nos sistemas recentes aumentou rapidamente, tornando as redes-em-chip a solução mais apropriada, por aliar escalabilidade e reuso na mesma estrutura. Contudo, diante da previsão de que essa tendência de aumento se manterá retorna a discussão se as redes-em-chip atuais continuarão adequadas para os futuros sistemas. De fato, o custo das redes-em-chip convencionais pode se tornar proibitivo para as escalas dos circuitos em um futuro próximo. Novas propostas têm sido apresentadas na literatura científica onde se podem destacar duas principais estratégias de projeto às redes de interconexão: reconfiguração arquitetural e organização hierárquica da topologia. A reconfiguração arquitetural permite obter uma grande eficiência, independente do tipo de aplicação em execução, pois uma das alternativas é projetar o circuito para que ele se auto adapte conforme os requisitos de desempenho para cada aplicação. Por outro lado, arquiteturas organizadas em topologias hierárquicas são desenvolvidas para uma estrutura computacional definida em tempo de projeto, sendo mais eficazes para uma classe de aplicações. O presente trabalho explora a sinergia da combinação das potencialidades das duas soluções e propõe uma nova estrutura que oferece melhor desempenho para uma classe maior de aplicações apropriada para os futuros sistemas. Como resultado foi implementada uma arquitetura adaptativa chamada MINoC (Multiple Interconnections Networks-on-Chip), uma arquitetura organizada em hierarquia, chamada HiCIT (Hierarchical Crossbar-based Interconnection Topology) e uma simbiose de ambas culminando na arquitetura hierárquica adaptativa HASIN (Hierarchical Adaptive Switching Interconnection Network). São apresentados resultados que mostram a eficiência desses conceitos validando a proposta hierárquica adaptativa.
With the advent of submicron processes, the number of transistors integrated on a single chip has reached levels that allowed the design of Multiprocessor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs). This capability allows the integration of several processing elements (PEs) in integrated circuits designed nowadays. In the next decade it is expected that hundreds of PEs…

▼ Portable electronic devices will be limited to available energy of existing battery chemistries for the foreseeable future. However, system-on-chips (SoCs) used in these devices are under a demand to offer more functionality and increased battery life. A difficult problem in SoC design is providing energy-efficient communication between its components while maintaining the required performance. This dissertation introduces a novel energy-efficient network-on-chip (NoC) communication architecture. A NoC is used within complex SoCs due it its superior performance, energy usage, modularity, and scalability over traditional bus and point-to-point methods of connecting SoC components. This is the first academic research that combines asynchronous NoC circuits, a focus on energy-efficient design, and a software framework to customize a NoC for a particular SoC. Its key contribution is demonstrating that a simple, asynchronous NoC concept is a good match for low-power devices, and is a fruitful area for additional investigation. The proposed NoC is energy-efficient in several ways: simple switch and arbitration logic, low port radix, latch-based router buffering, a topology with the minimum number of 3-port routers, and the asynchronous advantages of zero dynamic power consumption while idle and the lack of a clock tree. The tool framework developed for this work uses novel methods to optimize the topology and router oorplan based on simulated annealing and force-directed movement. It studies link pipelining techniques that yield improved throughput in an energy-efficient manner. A simulator is automatically generated for each customized NoC, and its traffic generators use a self-similar message distribution, as opposed to Poisson, to better match application behavior. Compared to a conventional synchronous NoC, this design is superior by achieving comparable message latency with half the energy.

▼ In an era when power constraints and data movement are proving to be significant barriers for high-end computing, manycore architectures offer a low power and highly scalable platform suitable for both data- and compute-intensive applications. The performance of a manycore architecture is highly dependent on the capabilities of its communication backbone, namely the Network on-
chip (NoC). An efficient NoC designed for a manycore platform must align the connectivity of the NoC with the application’s on-
chip traffic patterns.
Analysis on the inter-core traffic patterns exhibited by various Big Data applications reveal irregular memory access behaviors that give rise to long-range on-
chip communication requirements. In addition to the irregular memory access patterns, many of the modern applications also necessitate dense collective communication capabilities among the on-
chip nodes. Under collective communication, either a single source node transmits data to all the other nodes in the
system (one-to-all) or all the nodes in the
system communicate with a single destination node (all-to-one).
Wireless NoC is an emerging paradigm to design high bandwidth and energy efficient communication backbone for manycore chips. Previous works show that the wireless links can establish low-latency data-transfers even between physically distant on-
chip nodes. In addition, with its inherent broadcast capability, the on-
chip wireless links are highly suited to perform efficient collective-communication. Thus, employing on-
chip wireless links one can design efficient communication infrastructures for manycore platforms running high performance Big Data processing.
This dissertation focuses on designing a hybrid (wireline + wireless) network-on-
chip architecture (called WiNoC) capable of low-latency collective communication. First, we leverage the knowledge gained from studying small-world graphs to design low hop count WiNoC topologies. Next, we augment the WiNoC with suitable data-transfer mechanisms to ensure a congestion-free high performance NoC.
On overall, this work indicates on-
chip communication challenges arise from manycore Big Data processing and proposes a wireless-enabled high performance and energy efficient NoC capable of addressing these challenges.

▼ This dissertation presents three design solutions to support several key
system-on-
chip (SoC) issues to achieve low-power and high performance. These are: 1) joint source and channel decoding (JSCD) schemes for low-power SoCs used in portable multimedia systems, 2) efficient on-
chip interconnect architecture for massive multimedia data streaming on multiprocessor SoCs (MPSoCs), and 3) data processing architecture for low-power SoCs in distributed sensor network (DSS) systems and its implementation.
The first part includes a low-power embedded low density parity check code (LDPC) - H.264 joint decoding architecture to lower the baseband energy consumption of a channel decoder using joint source decoding and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS). A low-power multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and H.264 video joint detector/decoder design that minimizes energy for portable, wireless embedded systems is also designed.
In the second part, a link-level quality of service (QoS) scheme using unequal error protection (UEP) for low-power network-on-
chip (NoC) and low latency on-
chip network designs for MPSoCs is proposed. This part contains WaveSync, a low-latency focused network-on-
chip architecture for globally-asynchronous locally-synchronous (GALS) designs and a simultaneous dual-path routing (SDPR) scheme utilizing path diversity present in typical mesh topology network-on-chips. SDPR is akin to having a higher link width but without the significant hardware overhead associated with simple bus width scaling.
The last part shows data processing unit designs for embedded SoCs. We propose a data processing and control logic design for a new radiation detection sensor
system generating data at or above Peta-bits-per-second level. Implementation results show that the intended clock rate is achieved within the power target of less than 200mW. We also present a digital signal processing (DSP) accelerator supporting configurable MAC, FFT, FIR, and 3-D cross product operations for embedded SoCs. It consumes 12.35mW along with 0.167mm2 area at 333MHz.

▼ ARM Holding Ltd. is in a very good position; by owning a very prolific instruction set architecture (named ARM) and licensing it to other companies that compete with one another, they are always winners. Though ARM is used throughout the domain covered by embedded systems; one particular market that they have cornered is in the application cores used in mobile handset devices. Licensees oftentimes make their own alterations to the core, add other system components, and print or package them together into devices that this thesis will refer to as integrated systems. Though finding very specific architectural details between the cores themselves is as simple as going onto the website, true performance comparisons stemming from credible benchmarks of the integrated systems that contain them are not as forthcoming. This thesis aims to explore the realities of benchmarking ARM-based application integrated systems. By looking at what kind of benchmarks are available and what kind of tests have been done in the past it should become apparent what, if anything, needs to be developed to provide thorough comparisons between these devices. During the course of this investigation, topics such as the ambiguity in integrated system methods, the future of application integrated systems, and the process in actually selecting and running a benchmark on a sample system shall be explored.

▼ Over the last two decades, we have witnessed a fundamental paradigm shift in digital system design: the transition to the multi-core realm. Naturally, the multi-core domain has elevated the criticality of the on-chip interconnection fabric, which is now tasked with satisfying amplified communication demands. Owing to their scalability attributes, Networks-on-Chip (NoC) have established their position as the de facto communication medium in multi-core systems. To sustain system scalability into the many-core domain (with potentially hundreds of cores), it is imperative that the NoC's hardware cost is minimized, while not sacrificing network performance.To this end, we propose three alternative architectures that can significantly improve the performance of NoCs, or lead to an overall lower power consumption.The first one is a pipelined router architecture, called ShortPath, that parallelizes - for the first time - the allocation steps involved in the operation of a VC-based router without resorting to speculation. Most importantly, ShortPath is augmented with an always-productive pipeline bypassing mechanism, which skips all stages without contention, and "fast-forwards" the flits to the first encountered point of contention.The other two approaches exploit fast link traversal, after appropriate wire engineering, to rapidly transfer flits between adjacent routers (connected with links of reasonable, short-to-medium length of up to a few millimeters) in half a clock cycle. Under this clocking principle, two design alternatives are explored, which allow for half-cycle and Double-Data-Rate (DDR) link traversal. The proposed approaches can markedly increase network performance, or decrease the area/power cost of the NoC. Although not obvious at first glance, half-cycle link traversal opens up new possibilities for reducing wire capacitance. By harnessing these opportunities, the half-cycle-delay requirement becomes easier to achieve and potentially extends half-cycle traversal capabilities to longer links. To tackle longer links, novel DDR dual-stream elastic buffers are proposed for pipelining the links while still following DDR flow control.As multi/many-core architectures evolve, the demands on the NoC are amplified. In addition to high performance and physical scalability, the NoC is increasingly required to also provide specialized functionality, such as network virtualization, flow isolation, and quality-of-service guarantees. Although traditional architectures supporting Virtual Channels (VCs) offer the resources for flow partitioning and isolation, an adversarial workload can still interfere and degrade the performance of other workloads that are active in a different set of VCs. Motivated by this aspect, we present PhaseNoC, a truly non interfering VC-based architecture that adopts time-division multiplexing at the VC level. Distinct flows, or application domains, mapped to disjoint sets of VCs are isolated, both inside the router's pipeline, and at the network level. Any latency overhead is minimized by…

▼ A large part of today's multi-core chips is interconnect. Increasing communication complexity has made new strategies for interconnects essential such as Network on
Chip. Power dissipation in interconnects has become a substantial part of the total power dissipation. Hence, techniques to reduce interconnect power have become a necessity. In this thesis, we present a design methodology that gives values of bus width for interconnect links, frequency of operation for routers, in Network on
Chip scenario that satisfy required throughput and dissipate minimal switching power. We develop closed form analytical expressions for the power dissipation, with bus width and frequency as variables and then use Lagrange multiplier method to arrive at the optimal values.
To validate our methodology, we implement the router design in 90 nm technology and measure power for various bus widths and frequency combinations. We find that the experimental results are in good agreement with the predicted theoretical results. Further, we present the scenario of an Application Specific
System on
Chip (ASSoC), where the throughput requirements are different on different links. We show that our analytical model holds in this case also. Then, we present modified version of the solution considered for
Chip Multi Processor (CMP) case that can solve the ASSoC scenario also.

▼ The increase of capacity to integrate transistors permitted to develop completed systems, with several components, in single
chip, they are called SoC (
System-on-
Chip). However, the interconnection subsystem cans influence the scalability of SoCs, like buses, or can be an ad hoc solution, like bus hierarchy. Thus, the ideal interconnection subsystem to SoCs is the Network-on-
Chip (NoC). The NoCs permit to use simultaneous point-to-point channels between components and they can be reused in other projects. However, the NoCs can raise the complexity of project, the area in
chip and the dissipated power. Thus, it is necessary or to modify the way how to use them or to change the development paradigm. Thus, a
system based on NoC is proposed, where the applications are described through packages and performed in each router between source and destination, without traditional processors. To perform applications, independent of number of instructions and of the NoC dimensions, it was developed the spiral complement algorithm, which finds other destination until all instructions has been performed.
Therefore, the objective is to study the viability of development that
system, denominated IPNoSys
system. In this study, it was developed a tool in SystemC, using accurate cycle, to simulate the
system that performs applications, which was implemented in a package description language, also developed to this study. Through the simulation tool, several result were obtained that could be used to evaluate the
system performance. The methodology used to describe the application corresponds to transform the high level application in data-flow graph that become one or more packages. This methodology was used in three applications: a counter, DCT-2D and float add. The counter was used to evaluate a deadlock solution and to perform parallel application. The DCT was used to compare to STORM platform. Finally, the float add aimed to evaluate the efficiency of the software routine to perform a unimplemented hardware instruction. The results from simulation confirm the viability of development of IPNoSys
system. They showed that is possible to perform application described in packages, sequentially or parallelly, without interruptions caused by deadlock, and also showed that the execution time of IPNoSys is more efficient than the STORM platform

▼ O aumento na capacidade de integração de transistores permitiu o desenvolvimento de sistemas completos, com inúmeros componentes, dentro de um único chip, são os chamados SoCs (System-on-Chip). No entanto, o subsistema de interconexão utilizado pode limitar a escalabilidade dos SoCs, como os barramentos, ou ser uma solução ad hoc, como a hierarquia de barramentos. Desse modo, a solução ideal para interconexão no SoCs são as redes em chip ou NoCs (Network-on-Chip). As NoCs permitem múltiplas conexão ponto-a-ponto entre os componente e podem ser reusadas em projetos diversos. Entretanto, o uso de NoCs pode representar o aumento na complexidade do projeto do sistema, da área em chip e/ou potência dissipada. Dessa forma, é necessário ampliar o horizonte de utilização dos sistemas ou quebrar o paradigma do seu desenvolvimento. Assim, é proposto um sistema baseado em uma NoC, onde as aplicações são descritas em forma de pacotes e executadas de roteador em roteador durante o percurso entre origem e destino dos pacotes, sem a necessidade do uso de processadores convencionais. Para permitir a execução de aplicações, independente do número de instruções e das dimensões da rede, foi desenvolvido o algoritmo spiral complement, que permite re-rotear pacotes até que todas as instruções contidas nele sejam executadas. Portanto, o objetivo desse trabalho foi estudar a viabilidade do desenvolvimento de tal sistema, denominado sistema IPNoSys. Nesse estudo, foi desenvolvida em SystemC, com precisão de ciclo, uma ferramenta para simulação do sistema, a qual permite executar aplicações implementadas na linguagem de descrição de pacotes, também desenvolvida para esse fim. Através da ferramenta podem ser obtidos diversos resultados que permitem avaliar o funcionamento e desempenho do sistema. A metodologia empregada para descrição das aplicações corresponde, a priori, em obter o grafo de fluxo de dados da aplicação em alto nível, e desse grafo descrevê-la em um ou mais pacotes. Utilizando essa metodologia, foram realizados três estudos de casos: contador, DCT-2D e adição de ponto flutuante. O contador foi usado para avaliar a capacidade do sistema em tratar situações de deadlock e executar aplicações em paralelo. A DCT-2D foi utilizada para realizar comparações com a plataforma STORM. E, finalmente, a adição de ponto flutuante teve como objetivo ser usada como rotina de tratamento de uma instrução não implementada em hardware. Os resultados de simulação apontam favoravelmente com relação à viabilidade do desenvolvimento do sistema IPNoSys. Mostrando que é possível executar aplicações em forma de pacotes, inclusive paralelamente, sem interrupções provocadas por eventuais deadlocks, e ainda indicam maior eficiência do sistema IPNoSys a respeito do tempo de execução comparada a plataforma STORM

▼ A complexidade no projeto de sistemas eletrônicos tem aumentado devido à evolução tecnológica e permite a concepção de sistemas inteiros em um único chip (SoCs – do inglês, Systems-on-Chip). Com o objetivo de reduzir a alta complexidade de projeto, custos de projeto e o tempo de lançamento do produto no mercado, os sistemas são desenvolvidos em módulos funcionais, pré-verificados e pré-projetados, denominados de núcleos de propriedade intelectual (IP – do inglês, Intellectual Property). Esses núcleos IP podem ser reutilizados de outros projetos ou adquiridos de terceiros. Entretanto, é necessário prover uma estrutura de comunicação para interligar esses núcleos e as estruturas atuais (barramentos) são inadequadas para atender as necessidades dos futuros SoCs (compartilhamento de banda, falta de escalabilidade). As redes-em-chip (NoCs{ XE "NoCs" } – do inglês, Networks-on-Chip) vêm sendo apresentadas como uma solução para atender essas restrições. No desenvolvimento de sistemas embarcados baseados em redes-em-chip, deve-se personalizar a rede para atendimento de restrições. Essa exploração de espaço de projeto (EEP), segundo uma infinidade de trabalhos, é realizada em tempo de projeto, supondo-se que é conhecido o perfil das aplicações que devem ser executadas pelo sistema. No entanto, cada vez mais sistemas embarcados aproximam-se de dispositivos genéricos de processamento (como palmtops), onde as tarefas a serem executadas não são inteiramente conhecidas a priori. Com a mudança dinâmica da carga de trabalho de um sistema embarcado, a busca pelo atendimento de requisitos pode então ser enfrentada por mecanismos adaptativos, que implementam dinamicamente a EEP. No âmbito deste trabalho, a EEP em tempo de execução provê mecanismos adaptativos que deverão realizar suas funções para atendimento de restrições de projeto. Consequentemente, EEP em tempo de execução pode permitir resultados ainda melhores, no que diz respeito a sistemas embarcados com restrições de projetos rígidas. É possível maximizar o tempo de duração da energia da bateria que alimenta um sistema embarcado ou, até mesmo, diminuir a taxa de perda de deadlines em um sistema de tempo real soft, realocando em tempo de execução tarefas de modo a gerar menor taxa de comunicação entre os processadores, desde que o sistema seja executado em um tempo suficiente para amortizar os custos de migração. Neste trabalho, foi utilizada a combinação de heurísticas de alocação da área dos Sistemas Computacionais Distribuídos como, por exemplo, algoritmos bin-packing e linear clustering. Resultados mostraram que a realocação de tarefas, utilizando uma combinação Worst-Fit e Linear Clustering, reduziu o consumo de energia e a taxa de perda de deadlines em 17% e 37%, respectivamente, utilizando o modelo de migração por cópia.
The complexity of electronic systems design has been increasing due to the technological evolution, which now allows the inclusion of a complete system on a single chip (SoC – System-on-Chip). In order to cope with the corresponding design complexity…

▼ Nowadays, there is a growing demand for high frequency-bandwidth mm-wave (30-300 GHz) electronic wireless transceiver systems to support applications such as high data-rate wireless communication and high resolution imaging. Such mm-wave systems are becoming more feasible due to the extreme transistor downscaling in silicon-based integrated circuits, which enabled densely-integrated high-speed elec- tronics operating up to more than 100 GHz with low fabrication cost. To further enhance
system integrability, it is required to implement all wireless
system compo- nents on the
chip. Presently, the last major barrier to true
System-on-
Chip (SoC) realization is the antenna implementation on the silicon
chip.
Although at mm-wave frequencies the antenna size becomes small enough to fit on
chip, the antenna performance is greatly deteriorated due the high conductivity and high relative permittivity of the silicon substrate. The negative e↵ects of the silicon substrate could be avoided by using a metallic reflecting surface on top of silicon, which e↵ectively isolates the antenna from the silicon. However, this approach has the shortcoming of having to implement the antenna on the usually very thin silicon oxide layer of a typical CMOS fabrication process (10’s of μm). This forces the antenna to be in a very close proximity (less than one hundredth of a wavelength) to the reflecting surface. In this regime, the use of conventional metallic reflecting
surface for silicon shielding has severe e↵ects on the antenna performance as it tends to reduce the antenna radiation resistance resulting in most of the energy being absorbed rather than radiated.
In this work, the use of specially patterned reflecting surfaces for improving on-
chip antenna performance is investigated. By using a periodic metallic surface on top of a grounded substrate, the structure can mimic the behavior of a perfect mag- netic conductor, hence called Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) surface. Unlike conventional ground plane reflecting surfaces, AMC surfaces generally enhance the radiation and impedance characteristics of close-by antennas. Based on this property, a ring-based AMC reflecting surface has been designed in the oxide layer for on-
chip antennas operating at 94 GHz. Furthermore, a folded dipole antenna with its associ- ated planar feeding structures has been optimized and integrated with the developed ring-based AMC surface. The proposed design is then fabricated at KAUST clean- room facilities. Prototype characterization showed very promising results with good correlation to simulations, with the antenna exhibiting an impedance bandwidth of 10% (90-100 GHz) and peak gain of -1.4 dBi, which is the highest gain reported for on-
chip antennas at this frequency band without the use of any external o↵-
chip components or post-fabrication steps.

▼ Network on Chips[1][2][3][4] are critical elements of modern
System on
Chip(SoC) as well as
Chip Multiprocessor(CMP)designs. Network on Chips (NoCs) help manage high complexity of designing large chips by decoupling computation from communication. SoCs and CMPs have a multiplicity of communicating entities like programmable processing elements, hardware acceleration engines, memory blocks as well as off-
chip interfaces. With power having become a serious design constraint[5], there is a great need for designing NoC which meets the target communication requirements, while minimizing power using all the tricks available at the architecture, microarchitecture and circuit levels of the de-sign. This thesis presents a holistic, QoS based, power optimal design solution of a NoC inside a CMP taking into account link microarchitecture and processor tile configurations.
Guaranteeing QoS by NoCs involves guaranteeing bandwidth and throughput for connections and deterministic latencies in communication paths. Label Switching based Network-on-
Chip(LS-NoC) uses a centralized LS-NoC Management framework that engineers traffic into QoS guaranteed routes. LS-NoC uses label switching, enables band-width reservation, allows physical link sharing and leverages advantages of both packet and circuit switching techniques. A flow identification algorithm takes into account band-width available in individual links to establish QoS guaranteed routes. LS-NoC caters to the requirements of streaming applications where communication channels are fixed over the lifetime of the application. The proposed NoC framework inherently supports heterogeneous and ad-hoc SoC designs.
A multicast, broadcast capable label switched router for the LS-NoC has been de-signed, verified, synthesized, placed and routed and timing analyzed. A 5 port, 256 bit data bus, 4 bit label router occupies 0.431 mm2 in 130nm and delivers peak band-width of80Gbits/s per link at312.5MHz. LS Router is estimated to consume 43.08 mW. Bandwidth and latency guarantees of LS-NoC have been demonstrated on streaming applications like Hiper LAN/2 and Object Recognition Processor, Constant Bit Rate traffic patterns and video decoder traffic representing Variable Bit Rate traffic. LS-NoC was found to have a competitive figure of merit with state-of-the-art NoCs providing QoS. We envision the use of LS-NoC in general purpose CMPs where applications demand deterministic latencies and hard bandwidth requirements.
Design variables for interconnect exploration include wire width, wire spacing, repeater size and spacing, degree of pipelining, supply, threshold voltage, activity and coupling factors. An optimal link configuration in terms of number of pipeline stages for a given length of link and desired operating frequency is arrived at. Optimal configurations of all links in the NoC are identified and a power-performance optimal NoC is presented. We presents a latency, power and performance trade-off study of NoCs using link microarchitecture exploration. The design and implementation of a…

▼ Embedded systems are increasingly seeing the need for self-awareness to operate autonomously in the face of uncertainty and unpredictability in the environment, the applications they execute, and in the manufactured hardware. The notion of self-awareness enables a system to monitor its own state and behavior such that it is capable of making judicious decisions and adapt intelligently. However, emerging Multiprocessor Systems-on-chip (MPSoCs), used by these embedded systems and devices, still treat the elements of intelligence, specifically self-awareness, as a second-class design requirement, supporting them with ad hoc and poorly-developed awareness mechanisms, architectural supports, and system software. This dissertation overcomes these limitations by providing the foundation for a new class of self-aware adaptive MPSoCs called a Cyber-Physical-System-on-Chip (CPSoC). Unlike traditional MPSoCs, CPSoCs are distinguished by an intelligent co-design of the control, communication, and computing (C3) infrastructure while considering both the cyber and physical aspects together so as to adaptively achieve desired objectives and goals. CPSoC's sensor-actuator rich scalable architecture intrinsically couples on-chip and cross-layer sensing and actuation to enable self-awareness in a principled way. The thesis corroborates, through experiments and FPGA prototypes, the key idea that giving the SoC the freedom to opportunistically adapt the software and the hardware stack by infusing self-awareness mechanisms and steerable knobs across the stack can open up new and otherwise untapped opportunities in energy efficiency, performance, and thermal resilience.

▼ It bet on the next generation of computers as architecture with multiple processors and/or
multicore processors. In this sense there are challenges related to features interconnection, operating
frequency, the area on
chip, power dissipation, performance and programmability. The mechanism of
interconnection and communication it was considered ideal for this type of architecture are the
networks-on-
chip, due its scalability, reusability and intrinsic parallelism. The networks-on-
chip
communication is accomplished by transmitting packets that carry data and instructions that
represent requests and responses between the processing elements interconnected by the network.
The transmission of packets is accomplished as in a pipeline between the routers in the network, from
source to destination of the communication, even allowing simultaneous communications between
pairs of different sources and destinations. From this fact, it is proposed to transform the entire
infrastructure communication of network-on-
chip, using the routing mechanisms, arbitration and
storage, in a parallel processing
system for high performance. In this proposal, the packages are
formed by instructions and data that represent the applications, which are executed on routers as
well as they are transmitted, using the pipeline and parallel communication transmissions. In
contrast, traditional processors are not used, but only single cores that control the access to memory.
An implementation of this idea is called IPNoSys (Integrated Processing NoC
System), which has an
own programming model and a routing algorithm that guarantees the execution of all instructions in
the packets, preventing situations of deadlock, livelock and starvation. This architecture provides
mechanisms for input and output, interruption and operating
system support. As proof of concept
was developed a programming environment and a simulator for this architecture in SystemC, which
allows configuration of various parameters and to obtain several results to evaluate it
