Abstract
A method for dynamically controlling throughput set points from sources to targets in a network on a chip including a plurality of nodes and a plurality of links between these nodes for transmission of data packets, including for each link of the network solicited by the transmission of data packets, estimation of an available throughput margin that includes the estimation of a first margin calculated based on a maximum throughput capacity of the link; and for each emitting source of at least one data packet, the calculation and the application of an update of its throughput set point according to the estimated available throughput margins. Estimation of available throughput margin for each link includes estimation of a second margin calculated based on a maximum local absorption capacity of possible sporadic overflows of the throughput set points and its value is determined according to the first and second calculated margins.
