Previous issue date: 2012-08-17 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / The increasing complexity of integrated circuits has boosted the development of communications architectures like Networks-on-Chip (NoCs), as an architecture; alternative for interconnection of Systems-on-Chip (SoC). Networks-on-Chip complain for component reuse, parallelism and scalability, enhancing reusability in projects of dedicated applications. In the literature, lots of proposals have been made, suggesting different configurations for networks-on-chip architectures. Among all networks-on-chip considered, the architecture of IPNoSys is a non conventional one, since it allows the execution of operations, while the communication process is performed. This study aims to evaluate the execution of data-flow based applications on IPNoSys, focusing on their adaptation against the design constraints. Data-flow based applications are characterized by the flowing of continuous stream of data, on which operations are executed. We expect that these type of applications can be improved when running on IPNoSys, because they have a programming model similar to the execution model of this network. By observing the behavior of these applications when running on IPNoSys, were performed changes in the execution model of the network IPNoSys, allowing the implementation of an instruction level parallelism. For these purposes, analysis of the implementations of dataflow applications were performed and compared / A crescente complexidade dos circuitos integrados impulsionou o surgimento de arquiteturas de comunica??o do tipo Redes em chip ou NoC (do ingl?s, Network-on-Chip), como alternativa de arquitetura de interconex?o para Sistemas-em-Chip (SoC; Systems-on-Chip). As redes em chip possuem capacidade de reuso de componentes, paralelismo e escalabilidade, permitindo a reutiliza??o em projetos diversos. Na literatura, t?m-se uma grande quantidade de propostas com diferentes configura??es de redes em chip. Dentre as redes em chip estudadas, a rede IPNoSys possui arquitetura diferenciada, pois permite a execu??o de opera??es, em conjunto com as atividades de comunica??o. Este trabalho visa avaliar a execu??o de aplica??es orientadas a dados na rede IPNoSys, focando na sua adequa??o frente ?s restri??es de projeto. As aplica??es orientadas a dados s?o caracterizadas pela comunica??o de um fluxo cont?nuo de dados sobre os quais, opera??es s?o executadas. Espera-se ent?o, que estas aplica??es possam ser beneficiadas quando de sua execu??o na rede IPNoSys, devido ao seu elevado grau de paralelismo e por possu?rem modelo de programa??o semelhante ao modelo de execu??o desta rede. Uma vez observadas a execu??o de aplica??es na rede IPNoSys, foram realizadas modifica??es no modelo de execu??o da rede IPNoSys, o que permitiu a explora??o do paralelismo em n?vel de instru??es. Para isso, an?lises das execu??es de aplica??es data flow foram realizadas e comparadas
