Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a method for deriving an optimal Network-on-Chip (NoC) communication architecture using integer linear programming (ILP) while considering dynamic behavior of communications among processing elements (PEs). In the proposed method, for a given chip-size constraint, the number of modules, the link delay, the set of all communication specifications and their causal dependency, and the deadline constraints for all the communications for inputs, we derive automatically an ILP problem whose optimal solution corresponds to a NoC communication architecture where the derived architecture satisfies all the deadline constraints and the number of links is minimized. We also propose a heuristic algorithm to reduce the computation time for deriving a semi-optimal NoC communication architecture.
