| Abstract | Application-Specific Networks-on-Chips (ASNoCs) are suitable communication platforms for meeting current application requirements. Interconnection links are the primary components involved in communication between the cores of an ASNoC design. The integration density in ASNoC increases with continuous scaling down of the transistor size. Excessive integration density in ASNoC can result in the formation of thermal hotspots, which can cause a system to fail permanently. As a result, fault-tolerant techniques are required to address the permanent faults in interconnection links of an ASNoC design. By taking into account link faults in the topology, this paper introduces a fault-tolerant application-specific topology-based NoC design and its prototype on an FPGA. To place spare links in the ASNoC topology, a meta-heuristic algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is proposed. By taking link faults into account in ASNoC design, we also propose an application mapping heuristic and a table-based fault-tolerant routing algorithm. Experiments are carried out for a specific link and any link fault in fault-tolerant topologies generated by our approach and approaches reported in the literature. For the experimentation, we used the multi-media applications Picture-in-Picture (PiP), Moving Pictures Expert Group (MPEG) - 4, MP3Encoder, and Video Object Plane Decoder (VOPD). Experiments are run on software and hardware platforms. The static performance metric communication cost and the dynamic performance metrics network latency, throughput, and router power consumption are examined using software platform. In the hardware platform, the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is used to validate proposed fault-tolerant topologies and analyze performance metrics such as application runtime, resource utilization, and power consumption. The results are compared with the existing approaches, specifically Ring topology and its modified versions on both software and hardware platforms. The experimental results obtained from software and hardware platforms for a specific link and any link fault show significant improvements in performance metrics using our approach when compared with the related works in the literature. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
