This paper presents a novel multicast routing algorithm and architecture for spiking neuromorphic chips. The proposed algorithm alleviates the congestion of the overall spiking neural network system by adopting a K-means clustering scheme, which divides the network into balanced partitions. The proposed approach, when fully integrated, is expected to have a significant impact on IoTs, robotics, as well as prosthetic devices.
