Fault-Tolerant Deadlock-Free Custom NoC Topology Synthesis for Three-Dimensional Integrated Circuits

This thesis proposes a synthesis methodology which is capable of fault-tolerance and deadlock-free for constructing a custom NoC topology in 3D ICs. In this thesis, the processors and their communications can be synthesized simultaneously in the system-level floorplanning with fault tolerant consideration, called 3D-NoC-FT. Experimental results show that the pro-posed 3D-NoC-FT produces custom 3D NoCs with lower power dissipation than previous works. This method is also more scalable, which makes it ideal for complicated 3D NoC de-signs. Compared with the previous 3D NoC work (3D-SAL-FP) without link fault tolerance, our fault tolerant method outperforms on the average the power dissipation by 1.67X with rela-tively small overhead of latency by 17% and the number of TSV by 35%, respectively.
