A fine grained position for modular core on NoC

In this paper, the problem of spare core position when faults occur at core on Network on Chip (NoC) is proposed. More precisely, a fine grained spare core position is proposed, which goes for enhancing the entire system performance and communication energy consumption, while considering the occurrence of permanent, transient and intermittent faults in the system. This method finds the spare core near to perilous cores, as the key hypothetical involvement, the problem of spare core placement and its impact on system is discussed.
