Third International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems (ASYNC '97) Response Time Properties of Some Asynchronous Circuits Eindhoven, THE NETHERLANDS April 07-April 10 ISBN: 0-8186-7922-0
We discuss response time properties of linear arrays and tree-like arrays of cells with various handshake communication behaviors. The response times of a network are the delays between requests and succeeding acknowledgments for the first cell. We derive simple formulas for the worst-case response time and amortized response time of such networks using a general variable-delay model, where delays may vary between a lower and upper bound. The properties are independent of any particular implementation of the cells of the network.
