Reliable router for accurate online error detection in dynamic Network on Chip

This paper proposes a new reliable router allowing accurate online error detections in dynamic Network on Chip (NoC). The proposed router has the capability to detect and localize accurately inner or outer data packet errors of the router while distinguish between temporary and permanently errors. The error detection mechanisms of the proposed switches and advantages with regards to the other main already proposed router approaches are detailed while proving the feasibility and efficiency through several simulations online detection cases. Performance evaluation and FPGA implementation results are also given.
