NoCTweak
a Parameterizable Simulator for Early Exploration of Networks On-Chip
...This tool is a cycle-accurate simulator and is open-source using SystemC, a C++ plugin, which is used to quickly model complex systems at a higher level but less details than RTL. NoCTweak was developed by Dr. Anh Tran and Dr. Bevan Baas at UC Davis.
NoCTweak has been extended and integrated into McSim, a project developed by Dr. Abdoulaye Gamatié, Dr. Gilles Sassatelli, Dr. Manuel Selva et al. at LIRMM lab. McSim is a simulator for NoC-based many-core platforms, and is a part of the DreamCloud European project. DreamCloud allows dynamic resource allocation in many-core systems targeting high performance and energy efficient embedded applications.
