Abstract

In this paper, we develop a simulator for the Triplet Based (TriBA) Network On Chip processor architecture. TriBA(Triple-based Architecture) is a multiprocessor architecture whose basic idea is to bundle together the object programming basic philosophy and hardware multicore systems[1] .In TriBA ,nodes are connected in recursive triplets .TriBA network topology performance analysis have been carried out from different perspectives [2] and routing algorithms have been developed [3][4] but the architecture still lacks a simulator that the researcher can use to run simple and fast behavioral analysis on the architecture based on common parameters in the Network On Chip arena. We present TriBASim in this paper ,a simulator for TriBA ,based on system c[6] .TriBASim will lessen the burden on researchers on TriBA ,by giving them something to just plug in desired parameters and have nodes and topology set up ready for analysis.
