The many-core version of the project provides different type of tiles, although all share the same network- and coherence-related components. On the networking side, a generic tile of the system features a Network Interface module and a hardware Router, both described in Network architecture section.
The nu+ many-core features a shared-memory system, each nu+ core has a private L1 data cache, while the L2 cache is spread all over the instantiated tile along with a Directory Controller module which handles and stores coherence information for cached memory lines. This component is further described in Coherence architecture section.

NUPLUS tile
The NUPLUS tile mainly equips a nu+ GPGPU core, described in Nu+ GPGPU core section, and components used to interface the core with both networking and coherence systems. The following figure depicts an modular view of the NUPLUS tile:
MC tile
H2C tile
NONE tile
HT tile
Described in Heterogeneous Tile section.
