Simulation and Analysis of Multicast Routing Algorithm for 2-D Mesh Network on Chip

U. Saravanakumar and R. Rangarajan
Network on Chips (NoCs) overcome major drawbacks of bus based System on Chip (SoCs) like large delay, scalability, power etc. NoC adopts the principle of computer network into SoCs. Several factors such as Topology, Router and Routing algorithm have strong impact on effectiveness of NoCs in different dimensions. This study analysis presents different routing algorithms for NoCs and a new algorithm for multicast messaging based on mesh topology proposed to improve the overall NoC performance. The efficiency of new algorithm is verified by comparing its performance with Path Based Shortest Path (PBSP) algorithm in terms of energy, throughput and latency. These algorithms were developed and evaluated using C/C++ and Network Simulator, respectively for 2D Mesh NoCs. Comparison results show that the proposed algorithm has consumed less energy with high throughput while providing low latency.
