It is well recognized that on-chip communication plays a dominant role in determining the overall performance, reliability, and energy figures in many-core architectures. Today, virtually all large-scale chips are designed on the basis of the Network-on-Chip (NoC). NoCs are now part of a large number of products that we use every day and this is a proof that NoC paradigm is scalable and can be adapted to support various computational paradigms, ranging from multiprocessing to reconfigurable computing and the emerging area of neuromorphic computing. The goal of NoCArc workshop is to provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss innovative ideas and solutions related to the design and implementation of many-core architectures based on the NoC paradigm.
