Design and implementation of an FPGA-based NoC for Real Time Systems

• Most of the NoC designs found in the literature are expensive to implement in FPGA platforms and their complexity renders their analysis very complex. • Hoplite-RT is a new buffer-less NoC design based on the notion of deflection (see below) with bounded packet WCTT. However, the WCTT may become large as the number of deflections grows. • Hoplite-RT does not allow to associate different priorities to packets, and hence quality of services. Motivation
