Optimization Trends for Wireless Network On-Chip: A Survey

Abstract

Designing sustainable and high-performance wireless multi-core chips requires a matchless tradeoff between many aspects including scalable and reliable architectures implementation which in its turn implies aware-wideband energy-efficient wireless interfaces and adopting innovative straightforward optimization approaches to achieve the optimal configuration with a minimal cost. This paper focuses on investigating various existing designs and methodologies for wireless network on chip (WiNoC) architectures, as well as the different emerging technologies and optimization tools for the design of a robust and reliable WiNoC infrastructure with a special focus on combinatorial optimization meta-heuristics.
