Abstract:
A micro-coded accelerator may comprise multiple programmable control units, multiple special function units, a cross-bar switch to connect any of the control units to any one or more of the special function units, and a global memory to facilitate processing by these units. Each control unit may have an array of programmable logic arrays (ARPLAs), each of which may be configured in various ways, a local memory, and a switch circuit to enable the components of the control unit to perform various operations. By configuring the ARPLAs, the control units' internal switch circuitry, and the cross-bar switch, the micro-coded accelerator may be dynamically reconfigured to perform multiple types of operations.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a system, as well as a method and article, may operate to independently adjust a plurality of processor clocks coupled to a corresponding plurality of networked processors responsive to one or more status indicators to provide scalable performance and power consumption.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for data routing is generally described. In accordance with one example embodiment of the invention, a method to read at least a portion of a data packet, the at least portion of a data packet including content to configure at least one dedicated route through at least one node of a plurality of interconnected nodes communicatively coupled by one or more communication links and selectively configuring the at least one dedicated route based, at least in part, on the content, to route data from a source to a destination.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a system, as well as a method and article, may operate to independently adjust a plurality of processor clocks coupled to a corresponding plurality of networked processors responsive to one or more status indicators to provide scalable performance and power consumption. The status indicators may indicate the status of routers coupled to the processors. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
Abstract:
A dual mesh interconnect network in a heterogeneous configurable circuit may be allocated between data communication and control communication.
Abstract:
A method, a computer readable medium and an apparatus to adaptively control a data transmission rate of a wireless display device. The method includes determining a current data transmission rate capacity of a wireless channel; and controlling a data transmission rate of a wireless transmission device based on the current data transmission rate capacity.
Abstract:
In various embodiments, a processing element (PE) includes a data router adaptor (DRA) and one or more elements that produce function packets. When the DRA receives a function packet, it generates a set of associated router packets. Each of the associated router packets includes a segment of the function packet, and has a router packet data length that is less than or equal to the function packet length. In one embodiment, the router packet data lengths are included in a table, and can be re-configured to alter system performance parameters (e.g., bandwidth usage and/or latency). The DRA sends the set of associated router packets to a router for delivery through a packet-based network. A destination DRA receives the set of associated router packets, and generates a re-assembled function packet from the set of associated router packets. The destination DRA sends the re-assembled function packet to a destination element.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a system, as well as a method and article, may operate to include repeating first data to provide first repeated data and deleting second repeated data to provide second data according to a programmed standard included in a first apparatus and selected from a plurality of reprogrammable standards.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a system, as well as a method and article, may operate to control a bandwidth of a memory coupled to a plurality of data processing units responsive to protocol indications, such as a number of data processing units in use. In some embodiments, apparatus and systems, as well as methods and articles, may operate to select a memory access group size of about 2N memory banks responsive to receiving an indication of a change in a protocol type, wherein the group is selected from a number B of banks, and N is associated with the protocol type.
