Smart Network Interconnect for Chiplet - based Vehicular System?s Security
Avani Dave [2] | Krunal Dave
Abstract: With technological advancements, semiconductors have become critical components for modern - day automotive systems. They are extensively used in various applications such as vehicular - safety, efficiency, connectivity, infotainment, and autonomous driving. The automotive industry is experiencing a surge in demand for high - performance computing, power, and area - efficient systems. With physical, economic, technological, and design challenges, Moore's Law is reaching its practical limits. Also, supply chain issues during the COVID - 19 pandemic have forced the automotive industry to search for alternative scalable design architecture such as chiplets, 3D stacking, and quantum computing. Network - on - Chip (NOC) seems to help speed standardized interface integration and reduce complexity for chiplet connections. However, it opens security concerns as NOC becomes a single and critical point for interconnect. To this end, this work comprehensively surveys attack - resilient, secure NOC systems and proposes a new smart NOC - based access control and monitoring interconnect. This approach helps enhance security and prevents unauthorized access to a network of chiplets. The simulation results of smart NOC indicate minor latency and area impacts. However, it is negligible compared to the level of attack resilience, configurability, modularity, and security it offers.
