+= !VciSimpleCrossbar Functional Description =
+
+This hardware component is a generic VCI crossbar, it contains two
+independant crossbars for VCI commands and VCI responses.
+
+When several initiators try to reach the same target, the arbitration
+policy is round-robin.
+It gives the system designer a generic "communication black-box" with
+a parametrized number of VCI initiator ports (NB_INITIATOR), 
+and a parameterized number of VCI target ports (NB_TARGET). 
+
+As any VCI advanced compliant interconnect, this component uses
+the MSB bits of the VCI ADDRESS field to route the command packets
+to the proper target, thanks to a routing table, implemented as a ROM.
+This routing table is build by the constructor from the informations stored in
+the [wiki:Component/MappingTable mapping table].
+It uses the VCI RSRCID field to route the response packet to the initiator.
