SUMMARY:Shared Virtual Output Queuing: Maximizing NoC Switch Utilization
DESCRIPTION:Engineering Tracks, IP\n\nShared Virtual Output Queuing: Maxim
 izing NoC Switch Utilization\n\nJo, Kim\n\nModern mobile SoC integrates th
 roughput-oriented processors such as GPU/NPU/ISP for interactive gaming an
 d AI camera experiences, which requires increasingly higher memory and NoC
  bandwidth for high-throughput computation. The switch contention by Head-
 of-Line (HoL) blocking is the major bottleneck limiting NoC bandwidth in m
 emory channel-interleaved systems. In order to resolve the HoL blocking an
 d maximize switch utilization, we evaluate the previous proposals and thei
 r limitations, and propose Shared VOQ enabling to 1) share a single buffer
  with packets heading to different destinations and 2) consider all matchi
 ng availability between sources and destinations to maximize switch utiliz
 ation. Our evaluation shows that Shared VOQ achieves up to 10.3% throughpu
 t improvement comparing to the conventional queue with up to 14.6% area ov
 erhead and negligible timing impact. It is also showed that achievable thr
 oughput by shared VOQ can be nearly reached to theoretical maximum.\n\nTop
