Abstract
A system, such as a System-on-Chip includes an interface component or PLUG which generates transactions over an IP block, such as an interconnect serving one or more clients via virtual channels. The client or clients are mapped onto the virtual channels via client/virtual channel mappings. The virtual channels are provided as a first set of virtual channels in the interface component which cooperate with a second set of virtual channels in the IP block. First and second client/virtual channel mappings for the first set of virtual channels and the second set of virtual channels are provided. The first and second client/virtual channel mappings are separately programmable and mutually decoupled from one another.
