摘要:
This invention relates to a system on chip for data flow type application. The system comprises a network on chip, a central controller and processing units connected to said network via associated network interfaces. A processing unit and/or its associated network interface can be configured on command from the central controller or on a command incorporated in a data packet to be processed. The network interface comprises a client module that can request a configuration server to transmit the parameters of a configuration that is unavailable in the interface. The invention also relates to a mobile terminal/ a base station comprising a base band modem implemented by such a system on chip.

The invention relates to a data processing method in a network on chip formed of a plurality of resources (310,320) capable of communicating with one another and of processing and at least one network controller (300) capable of initialising the communications in the network by initialisation of a credit system, the process comprising at least one communication step between at least one first resource (310) and at least one second resource (320), said communication step comprising: at least one emission by the first resource of a first plurality of special data or “credits” destined for the second resource, at least one receipt by the first resource of a first plurality of data to process sent by the second resource, the emission by the second data resource destined for first resource being authorised following the receipt by the second resource of credits emitted by the first resource.
摘要:
A data processing method in a network on chip formed of a plurality of processors configured to communicate between one another, and at least one network controller configured to initialize communications in the network, the method including: receiving and storing in a memory by a first processor, one or more credit management configuration programs received from the network controller, and establishing a first communication between at least said first processor and at least one second processor.

This invention relates to the domain of Networks on Chips (NoC) and relates to a method of transferring data in a network on chip, particularly using an asynchronous “send/accept” type protocol.The invention also relates to a network on chip used to implement this method.
摘要:
The invention relates to a component with a large grain dynamically reconfigurable architecture for processing of data by processing units organized in rows and connected to each other through interconnections so as to enable processing in pipeline or parallel mode or in dependent rows mode. All data types may be processed and the component may process several applications at the same time. The choice of the grain, control at several levels with limited control interconnection resources and the data distribution circuit enable local or general reconfiguration of the component in one clock cycle.
摘要:
A method for optimizing operation which is applicable to a multiprocessor integrated circuit chip. Each processor runs with a variable parameter, for example its clock frequency, and the optimization includes determination, in real time, of a characteristic data value associated with the processor (temperature, consumption, latency), transfer of the characteristic data to the other processors, calculation by each processor of various values of an optimization function depending on the characteristic data value of the block, on the characteristic data values of the other blocks, and on the variable parameter, the function being calculated for the current value of this parameter and for other possible values, selection, from among the various parameter values, of that which yields the best value for the optimization function, and application of this variable parameter to the processor for the remainder of the execution of the task.
