STATISTICS AND FAILURE DETECTION IN A NETWORK ON A CHIP (NoC) NETWORK

摘要

Certain aspects of the present disclosure support techniques for collecting system information in a network on a chip (NoC). A dedicated packet may be transmitted from a source node to a destination node. As it traverses through the NoC, the dedicated packet may collect information from various nodes, which may be made available by the destination node. The collected information may be used in an effort to detect failures and collect statistics regarding the NoC.
