In network-on-chip (NoC), the data transferring by virtual channels can avoid the issue of data loss and deadlock. Many virtual\nchannels on one input or output port in router are included. However, the router includes five I/O ports, and then the power\nissue is very important in virtual channels. In this paper, a novel architecture, namely, Smart Power-Saving (SPS), for low power\nconsumption and low area in virtual channels of NoC is proposed. The SPS architecture can accord different environmental factors\nto dynamically save power and optimization area in NoC. Comparison with related works, the new proposed method reduces\n37.31%, 45.79%, and 19.26% on power consumption and reduces 49.4%, 25.5% and 14.4% on area, respectively.
