Emerging Network-on-Chip Architectures for Low Power Embedded Systems

Dear Colleagues,

Manycore architectures, formed by hundreds of processing elements, will soon replace traditional multicore architectures, bringing new opportunities and effective energy-performance trade-offs, but also introducing new design challenges.

Network-on-Chip emerged in recent years as a viable solution for the design of manycore embedded systems of the next generation. However, communication infrastructure scalability, memory bottleneck and parallelization of tasks, just to cite few examples, are becoming the limiting factors that hardware designers and software developers will be facing in the upcoming years.

This Special Issue on “Emerging Network-on-Chip Architectures for Low Power Embedded Systems” will focus on emerging approaches and recent advances on architectures, design techniques, modeling and prototyping solutions for the design of power/performance efficient Network-on-Chip systems in the manycore era.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Low Power Electronics and Applications is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
