A method and NoC design tool is disclosed that automatically maps the paths listed in a timing report and the unit size in an area report to the topology of a NoC and displays the paths and unit sizes in a GUI. For example, a user interface includes split-pane interface having a navigable tray area and a composition area. The backplane member defines multiple rows of holes. Qualitative analysis suggests that a reasonably strong interface between the natural fibers and biopolymer matrix can form spontaneously under the proper conditions. The controller also monitors the overturn detector for failure. The band is preformed with a substantially closed loop of band material to capture a seal to provide a preassembled band and seal wherein the seal is generally inhibited from being dislodged during packing, shipment, handling and installation.
