    Abstract: Apparatus (110) for configuring network equipment or devices (101a-101n) during runtime is particularly applicable to network equipment based on QorIQ (trade mark) communication platforms for DPAA (Data Path Acceleration Architecture) optimization purposes and provides a way maintaining an optimal configuration which can change over time acccording to real traffic conditions. The invention may be implemented with any kind of adaptation algorithm for targeting different DPAA features. A flow characteristic function is determined from collected traffic statistics for a multiplicity of traffic flows classified by a common property such as protocol or destination or source. Flow properties are characterised over time, past present and future prediction and in relation to other existing flows based on assigned priorities. A computed flow characteristic function represents the basis for all adaptation algorithms which may be implemented in order to optimise the various DPAA features. In contrast with conventional methods which adapt traffic to system constraints, the apparatus of the present invention itself continuously adapts to traffic dynamics in order to maintain an optimal configuration over an extended period of time.

    Abstract: An open-circuit detection system for an integrated circuit (IC) includes a wire (e.g., part of a wire mesh for device protection) and circuitry for detecting open-circuit conditions in the wire. A first signal generator (e.g., a linear-feedback shift register) applies a binary sequence to a first end of the wire. Switched resistors are connected between a second end of the wire and both a voltage supply and ground. A comparator compares the binary sequence and a signal based on the voltage at the second end of the wire to check for the open-circuit condition. Logic circuitry closes one of the first and second switches as a function of a value in the binary sequence. The comparator checks for the open-circuit condition in the wire randomly and intermittently, which reduces power consumption.
