Abstract

Systems and methods for providing input and output ports to connect to channels are provided. Input and output ports are the basic building blocks to create more complex data routing IP blocks. By aggregating these modular ports in different ways, different implementations of crossbar or Network on Chip (NoC) can be implemented, allowing flexible routing structure while maintaining all the benefits of channels such as robustness against delay variation, data compression and simplified timing assumptions.
