On-Chip Interconnection Architecture of the Tile Processor

Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Abstract

IMesh, the tile processor architecture's on-chip interconnection network, connects the multicore processor's tiles with five 2D mesh networks, each specialized for a different use. taking advantage of the five networks, the C-based ILIB interconnection library efficiently maps program communication across the on-chip interconnect. the tile processor's first implementation, the tile64, contains 64 cores and can execute 192 billion 32-bit operations per second at 1 Ghz.
