MAJOR PROJECTS
• M.Tech Project (Ongoing) (May 2016 - Present)
Title: Fault Tolerant Routing for Network on Chip(NoC) Architecture
Guide: Prof. Virendra Singh, IIT Bombay
Keywords: NoC, Packet, Deadlock, Livelock
Idea: Development of a new fault tolerant routing algorithm for NoC architecture
o Routing Algorithm should cover any number of link failures in the network
o This research work focuses on error free transmission of packets in the network
Ongoing and Future Work:
o Studied several design approach for reliable data delivery under faulty environment
o Deadlock and Livelock avoidance is to provided in the network
o Intra-router soft error is to be studied and dedicated hardware can be used
o Link-Level Fault Detection and Protection can be provided using hamming codes
• M.Tech Seminar (January - May 2016)
Title: Design Methodology and Research Approach for NoCs
Guide: Prof. Virendra Singh, IIT Bombay
o Studied several research challenges, and motivation for the design and corresponding approach
