As a result, Network-on-Chip (NoC) has emerged as a system architecture to overcome intra-communication issues. This paper presents a study of recent contributions on simulation tools for NoC. Furthermore, an overview of NoC is covered as well as a comparison between some NoC simulators to help facilitate research in on-chip communication.}, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {11}, number = {4}, year = {2017}, pages = {480 - 484}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10007068}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/124}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 124, 2017}, }
