Interfacing SoCLib CABA models with NoCBench for NoC perfomance evaluation

The number of cores in a single chip increases with the increase of communication needs. Network on Chips (NoCs) are developed to handle these needs. We present our work to evaluate models of NoC present in the SoCLib library with the NoCBench platform. NoCBench contains performance evaluation tools for NoC such as a Transaction Generator and an Execution Monitor. SoClib is a library of IP cores, including NoC, written in SystemC, we retain the WiNoCoD RF-NoC as a use case. Various benchmarks can be ported to our NoC to evaluate its performance and it can be compared with existing NoCs which used the same performance evaluation tools under NoCBench.
