Two Multicasting Schemes for Irregular 3D Mesh-based Bufferless NoCs

In this paper, the authors proposed two multicast routing algorithms for irregular 3D mesh-based Bufferless Interconnection Network. The DRM-1 scheme sends multicast through a non-deterministic path. The DRM-2 scheme broke multicast into multiple single packets. Compared with the DRM-1 multicast routing algo- rithm, DRM-2 scheme with four different synthetic workloads acquires high system performance.
