8th International Workshop on Network on Chip Architectures

December 6, 2015 - Waikiki, Hawaii
(To be held in conjunction with IEEE/ACM MICRO-48)
**********************************************************************


G E N E R A L I N F O R M A T I O N

We are now entered in the so called many-core era. The International
Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors foresees that the number of
Processing Elements (PEs) that will be integrated into a
System-on-Chip (SoC) will be in the order of thousand within the
2020. As the number of communicating elements increases, there is a
need for an efficient, scalable and reliable communication
infrastructure. As technology geometries shrink to the deep submicron
regime, however, the communication delay and power consumption of
global interconnections become the major bottleneck. The
Network-on-Chip (NoC) design paradigm, based on a modular
packet-switched mechanism, can address many of the on-chip
communication issues such as performance limitations of long
interconnects, and integration of large number of PEs on a chip.

The goal of NoCArc workshop is to provide a forum for researchers to
present and discuss innovative ideas and solutions related to design
and implementation of multi-core systems on chip. The workshop will
focus on issues related to design, analysis and testing of on-chip
networks.


A R E A S O F I N T E R E S T

The workshop will focus on issues related to design, analysis and
testing of on-chip networks. The topics of specific interest for the
workshop include, but are not limited to:

NoC Architecture and Implementation
* Topologies, routing, flow control
* Managing QoS
* Timing, synchronous/asynchronous communication
* Reliability issues
* Design methodologies and tools
* Signaling & circuit design for NoC links
* NoC Analysis and Verification

Power, energy and thermal issues
* Benchmarking and experience with NoC-based systems
* Modeling, simulation, and synthesis
* Verification, debug and test
* Metrics and benchmarks
* NoC Application

Mapping of applications onto NoCs
* NoC case studies, application-specific NoC design
* NoCs for FPGAs, structured ASICs, CMPs and MPSoCs
* NoC designs for heterogeneous systems
* On-Chip Communication Optimization

Communication efficient algorithms
* Multi/many-core communication workload characterization and
evaluation
* Energy efficient NoCs and energy minimization
* NoC at System-level

Design of memory subsystem
* NoC support for memory and cache access
* OS support for NoCs
* Programming models including shared memory, message passing and
novel programming models
* Issues related to large-scale systems (datacenters, supercomputers)
with NoC-based systems as building blocks

Emerging NoC Technologies
* Wireless, Optical, and RF
* NoCs for 3D and 2.5D packages

Besides regular papers, papers describing work in progress or
incomplete but sound new innovative ideas related to the workshop
theme are also encouraged.
