Switching Techniques: NoC brings the concept of packet switching from data to on-chip networks. The nodes are connected through point to point links using regular and irregular topologies. The packet traverses along these nodes to reach the destination using routing algorithm. Conclusion: In this paper, NoC architectures are reviewed using different parameters, detail information is also provided for these parameters. The NoC architectures reviewed are proposed and implemented in last more than a decade. {\^A}{\copyright} 2017 Bentham Science Publishers.}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85025168334&doi=10.2174\%2f2352096510666170425102503&partnerID=40&md5=23844758ad8a89822be6e6d5e8ac0cb8}, keywords = {Embedded systems; Network architecture; Quality of service, Buffer management; Fault-tolerant routing algorithm; Link-sharing; Network-on-chip(NoC); Switching techniques, Network-on-chip}, author = {Sethi, M.
