  1. National Sun Yat-sen University Embedded System LaboratoryA Fast Network-on-Chip Simulator with QEMU and SystemC Presenter: Min Yu,Lo Keita Nakajima, Takuji Hieda, Ittetsu Taniguchi. Hiroyuki Tomiyama, Hiroaki Takada 2012 Third International Conference on Networking and Computing

  2. What’s problem • NoC design • The design of NoCs at Register-Transfer-Level (RTL) is time-consuming. It is also very difficult to modify and/or change the network architecture if the design is not suitable for the target application. • NoC Simulator design • Availability(Simulation time ) • Scalability(Simulation of Various sizesNoC architecture) • Retargetability (Simulation of Various processor) • Full system verification

  3. FastNoC Simulator • This paper proposedNoC simulator • In the proposed simulator, each CPU core is emulated by a QEMU, and the network part including NoC routers is modeled with SystemC. • AcceleratedthisNoCsimulator • This NoC simulator can be executed on multiple host computers since the SystemCsimulator and QEMUs are connected via standard TCP sockets.

  4. Scalabilityand simulation time improvement • JPEG encoding application benchmark program. • Changed the number of cores on the NoC Simulator. • Simulated six NoC architectures(9,18,36,54,72,90,108). • Run this simulator on two host computers. • The distributed simulation on the dual host computers is 43% faster than the single-host simulation.

  5. Retargetability • Show this simulator supports any CPU core supported by QEMU since this use QEMU without modification. • In order to test the retargetability of the simulator, Changed the ISA of target cores and measured the simulation times.
