SMART (Single-cycle Multi-hop Asynchronous Repeated Traversal) Network-on-Chip (NoC), a recently proposed dynamically reconfigurable NoC, enables single-cycle long-distance communication by building single-bypass paths directly between distant communication pairs. However, such a single-cycle single...
