Issues in implementing latency insensitive protocols

A design that works under the assumption of zero-delay connections between functional modules is modified in a latency insensitive design (LID) by encapsulating them within the wrappers ("shells") and connecting them through internally pipelined blocks ("relay stations") complying with a protocol that guarantees identity of behavior.
