Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention relate to meeting latency constraints in a multi-core neurosynaptic network. In one embodiment of the present invention, a method of and computer program product for power-driven synthesis under latency constraints is provided. Power consumption of a neurosynaptic network is modeled as wire length. The neurosynaptic network comprises a plurality of neurosynaptic cores. Each of the plurality of neurosynaptic cores is modeled as a node in a placement graph. The graph has a plurality of edges. A weight is assigned to each of the plurality of edges based on a spike frequency. An arrangement of the neurosynaptic cores is determined. The arrangement comprises a length of each of the plurality of edges. A maximum length is compared to the length of each of the plurality of edges. The weight of at least one of the plurality of edges is increased where the length is greater than the maximum length.
