Abstract

A program tool automatically generating interconnect logic for a system-on-a-chip is based on a library of operational cores and on a architecture which requires all data exchange between cores to proceed via shared memory, which may be 'off-chip'. The architecture includes a data aggregation technique for access to memory with successive levels of arbitration.
