Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the possibility of achieving on-chip fault-tolerant communication based on a newcommunication paradigm called stochasticcommunication.Specifically, for a generic tile-basedarchitecture, we present a randomized algorithm whichnot only separates computation from communication, butalso provides the required fault-tolerance to on-chipfailures.This new technique is easy and cheap toimplement in SoCs that integrate a large number ofcommunicating IP cores.
