A method and apparatus for an address generation circuit. In one embodiment, the method includes computing a carry-in for at least one group of a predetermined number of bits of a propagate and a generate signal formed from a plurality of logical address components. Once the carry-in is computed, a plurality of conditional sums are generated for a logic 0 carry-in and a logic 1 carry-in. Subsequently, a sum is selected from the plurality of conditional sums to form a first portion of an effective address from the logical address components in a first stage and a second portion of the effective address in a second stage. In one embodiment, a fully dynamic high-performance sparse tree adder circuit that generates one in four carries, is used to form an address generation circuit, in accordance with one embodiment. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

An adder circuit includes a number of selectors and an adder. The selectors feed the adder with multiple input data bits. Each of the selectors includes a combination of a multiplexing network and a sense amplifier to select from a number of input values to generate the multiple input data bits. The combination of the multiplexing network and the sense amplifier acts as the state-holding element at the input of the adder, avoiding the overheads of an explicit latch stage.

Techniques and mechanisms for performing circuit-switched routing and packet-switched routing for network communication. In an embodiment, a router evaluates control information of a packet received by the router, the evaluation to detect whether the packet includes data for a sideband communication. Based on the evaluation, the router performs a selection from among a plurality of modes of the router, the plurality of modes including a first mode to route the packet for packet-switched communication of sideband data in a network. The plurality of modes also includes a second mode to configure a circuit-switched channel according to the packet. In another embodiment, the router determines a direction for routing a packet in a hierarchical network, wherein the determining of the direction is based on a level of the router in a hierarchy of the hierarchical network.
