First sentence: To boost design productivity it is crucial that the effort to add new parts to a given design does not depend on the size of the existing design but only on the size of the new parts.
Description: "Networks on Chip presents a variety of topics, problems and approaches with the common theme to systematically organize the on-chip communication in the form of a regular, shared communication network on chip, an NoC for short.".

"The book is organized in three parts. The first deals with system design and methodology issues. The second presents problems and solutions concerning the hardware and the basic communication infrastructure. Finally, the third part covers operating system, embedded software and application. However, communication from the physical to the application level is a central theme throughout the book.".

"The book serves as an excellent reference source and may be used as a text for advanced courses on the subject."--BOOK JACKET.
