In the last few decades, the concept of Wireless Network-on-chip (WiNoC) has emerged as a promising alternative for Multiprocessor Systems on Chip (MPSOC) to achieve reliable and scalable communication. Worth recalling in this regard is that our research team has already designed, verified and evaluated Multistage Interconnection Networks (MIN) in this field. With respect to the present work, we consider proceeding with further exploring our thoughts on this research area. Firstly, we propose the design and performance evaluation of a hybrid (wireless/wired) MIN, analysing how this augmented network can potentially improve not only the average delay, but also energy consumption. Secondly, we continue with examining the implementation of our advanced DELTA-based MIN architecture on Deep Neural Network (DNN) accelerators, while accounting for its potential regularity and scalability in simultaneously maintaining an effective power efficiency and lower latency throughout the DNN operating process. In this context, several metrics have been evaluated in regard to three DNN application cases through implementation of their main respective modules. |
