7.5. Adaptive Communication Architectures
The previous section described techniques for statically customizing the communication architecture toward specific characteristics of the on-chip communication traffic generated by an application. In several systems, the traffic generated by SoC components could exhibit significant temporal variation in the requirements they impose on the communication architecture. This may occur due to variability in the exact functions being executed by the system components or the properties of the data being processed. For such systems, a mere static customization of the communication architecture (using approaches such as the ones described in the previous section) may prove insufficient. In other words, the communication ...
