Abstract:
A network-on-chip and a corresponding method are provided. The network-on-chip includes at least one bufferless ring network in at least one dimension of the network-on-chip. At least one bufferless ring network includes multiple routing nodes, and at least one of the multiple routing nodes is a switching node. Two bufferless ring networks in different dimensions may intersect. The two bufferless ring networks exchange data by using switching nodes. A dedicated slot and a public slot are configured in each bufferless ring network. Only one switching node has permission to use a dedicated slot at a same moment in each bufferless ring network, the permission to use the dedicated slot is transferred successively between switching nodes in each bufferless ring network. The permission to use the dedicated slot is transferred after transmission of data in the dedicated slot is completed.

Claim (Index 1):
A network-on-chip, comprising:\n a two-dimensional network-on-chip, wherein at least one dimension of the network-on-chip comprises at least one bufferless ring network, the at least one bufferless ring network comprises multiple routing nodes connected in series into a ring shape, and at least one of the multiple routing nodes is a switching node; the network-on-chip comprises a first bufferless ring network and a second bufferless ring network that intersect in the network-on-chip, the first bufferless ring network and the second bufferless ring network are in different dimensions, the first bufferless ring network comprises a first switching node, the second bufferless ring network comprises a second switching node, and the first switching node and the second switching node are connected to each other to exchange data; each bufferless ring network comprises N slots configured to carry data, each bufferless ring network further comprises N routing nodes in the bufferless ring network, each slot is cyclically transmitted in the bufferless ring network to which the slot belongs, and there is only one slot at a routing node at a same moment, wherein the N slots comprise M dedicated slots and N\u2212M public slots, M is a positive integer, N>M\u22651, only one switching node has a permission to use a dedicated slot at a same moment in each bufferless ring network, the permission to use the dedicated slot is transferred successively between switching nodes in the bufferless ring network to which the dedicated slot belongs, and the permission to use the dedicated slot is transferred after transmission of data in the dedicated slot is completed; and the first switching node is configured to: when the first switching node has permission to use a dedicated slot of the first bufferless ring network, the dedicated slot of the first bufferless ring network arrives at the first switching node, and the second switching node has data that needs to be transmitted to the first bufferless ring network, obtain the data of the second switching node, and use the dedicated slot of the first bufferless ring network to transmit the obtained data.
