Abstract

Many research activities in the area of Network on Chip (NoC) architectures have been performed. The results achieved up to now are quite attractive but often are not directly applicable because of technological reasons or implementation difficulty. In this paper an industrial experience is presented by introducing the approach followed to support the transition from the traditional interconnects to the NoC architectures. The paper mainly focuses on the strategy used to overcome physical issues and particularly the difficulty to perform system synchronization.
