    Abstract

    General purpose networks-on-chip (GP-NoC) are expected to feature tens or even hundreds of computational elements with complex communications infrastructure binding them into a connected network to achieve memory synchronization. The experience accumulated over the years in network design suggests that the knowledge of the traffic nature is mandatory for successful design of a networking technology. In this paper, based on the Intel CPU family, we describe traffic estimation techniques for modern multi-core GP-CPUs, discuss the traffic modeling procedure and highlight the implications of the traffic structure for GP-NoC research. The most important observation is that the traffic at internal interfaces appears to be random for external observer and has clearly identifiable batch structure.
