Abstract

This paper presents the end-to-end QoS approach to provide performance guarantees followed in the SELENE platform, a high-performance RISC-V based heterogeneous SoC for safety-related real-time systems. Our QoS approach includes smart interconnect solutions for buses and NoCs, along with multicore interference-aware statistics units to, cooperatively, achieve end-to-end QoS.
