This paper discusses the implementation of {GS} in asynchronous Network-on-Chip. We present a novel scheduling discipline called Asynchronous Latency Guarantee (ALG) scheduling, which provides latency and bandwidth guarantees in accessing a shared media, e.g. a physical link shared between a number of virtual channels. {ALG} overcomes the drawbacks of existing scheduling disciplines, in particular the coupling between latency and bandwidth guarantees. A 0.12 \&\#956;m {CMOS} standard cell implementation of an {ALG} link has been simulated. The operation speed of the design was 702 {MDI}/s." }
