  4. Abstract:
  5. In this paper, a 2D shuffle-exchange based mesh topology, or 2D SEM (Shuffle-exchange Mesh) for short, is presented for network-on-chips. The proposed two-dimensional topology applies the conventional well-known shuffle-exchange structure in each row and each column of the network. Compared to an equal sized mesh which is the most common topology in on-chip networks, the proposed shuffle-exchange based mesh network has smaller diameter but for an equal cost. Simulation results show that the 2D SEM effectively reduces the power consumption and improves performance metrics of the on-chip networks with regard to the conventional mesh topology. ©2008 IEEE
