  4. Abstract:
  5. This paper quantifies the difference in resource demand between modern and classic NoC workloads. In the paper, we show that modern workloads are able to better utilize higher numbers of VCs and smaller C factors in order to attain performance and energy efficiency. This is because of the high throughput and possible local congestions in their traffic pattern. As a result, such workloads are more suitable for concurrency and redundancy energy reduction techniques where the voltage and frequency are reduced simultaneously and the increased power budget is used for introducing additional resources to the network in order to improve the performance
