Nostrum Network-on-Chip Simulation Environment

A main challenge for Network-on-Chip (NoC) design is to select a network architecture that suits a particular application. NNSE enables to analyze the performance impact of NoC configuration parameters. It allows one to (1) configure a network with respect to topology, flow control and routing algorithm etc.; (2) configure various regular and application specific traffic patterns; (3) evaluate the network with the traffic patterns in terms of latency and throughput.
