System and method for visualization of NoC performance based on simulation output

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable mediums for selective visualization and performance characterization of one or more transactions/messages or subsets of transaction/message of a System-on-Chip (SoC) and/or Network-on-Chip (NoC), with respect to latency, throughput, packet size, data size, hop-to-hop latency breakdown, load of one or more channels, power states of one or more elements of the NoC system, transaction data, among other like performance attributes.

1. A method, comprising:
conducting a simulation of one or more transactions of a Network on Chip (NoC) system through a simulation device; during or after the simulation of the one or more transactions of the NoC system; presenting a visual display of simulation results on a display, the visual display indicative of performance of the NoC system, for at least one of: one or more subsets of the one or more transactions, one or more messages of the transactions of the NoC, at least a subset of source interfaces of the NoC and at least a subset of destination interfaces of the NoC, one or more NoC agents, and one or more NoC channels; wherein the visual display is indicative of performance of the NoC comprises at least one of latency, throughput, and data size of the NoC over time; and displaying a list of the at least one of the one or more transactions, one or more messages of the NoC, at least a subset of source interfaces of the NoC and at least a subset of destination interfaces of the NoC, one or more NoC agents, and one or more NoC channels with the visual display of simulation results and adjusting the visual display based on a selection within the list.
