    abstract     = "The demand for {IP} reuse and system level scalability in System-on-Chip (SoC) designs is growing. Network-onchip (NoC) constitutes a viable solution space to emerging SoC design challenges. In this paper we describe an {OCP} compliant network adapter (NA) architecture for the {MANGO} NoC. The {NA} decouples communication and computation, providing memory-mapped {OCP} transactions based on primitive message-passing services of the network. Also, it facilitates {GALS-}type systems, by adapting to the clockless network. This helps leverage a modular SoC design flow. We evaluate performance and cost of 0.13 um {CMOS} standard cell instantiations of the architecture."
