End-to-end quality-of-service in a network-on-chip

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable by a processor to perform a method of generating a configuration for a network on chip (NoC) in a programmable device, comprising:

• receiving traffic flow requirements for a plurality of traffic flows;
• assigning routes through the NoC for each traffic flow based on the traffic flow requirements;
• determining arbitration settings for the traffic flows along the assigned routes;
• generating programming data for the NoC;
• and
• loading the programming data to the programmable device to configure the NoC.

An integrated circuit, comprising:

• a processing system;
• a programmable logic region;
• and
• a network on chip (NoC) coupling the processing system and the programmable logic region, the NoC including master circuits coupled to slave circuits through one or more physical channels, a first physical channel having a plurality of virtual channels.
