摘要： An optoelectronic assembly for a computer system includes an electronic chip(s), a substrate, an electrical signaling medium, an optoelectronic transducer, and an optical coupling guide. The electronic chip(s) is in communication with the substrate, which is in communication with a first end of the electrical signaling medium. A second end of the electrical signaling medium is in communication with the optoelectronic transducer, and includes the optical coupling guide for aligning an optical signaling medium with the optoelectronic transducer. An electrical signal from the electronic chip is communicated to the optoelectronic transducer via the substrate and the electrical signaling medium. The optical transducer and electronic chip(s) share a common heat spreader, and communication to other groups of electronic chip(s) is done without the need for communication via a second level electrical package.

摘要： A communication system which consists of several modules—operating in parallel on segments of a packet—to increase speed and handling capacity. One module acts as master, the others are slave modules controlled by control signals derived by the master module. It is important that in each module the data segment and the respective control signal of each packet are correctly synchronized, because in large systems the data paths carrying packet segments and the control signal paths may have substantially different delays. The invention provides for measurement of the propagation delay differences and for introducing a controlled delay in each slave module, so that data segments and control signals can be correctly correlated by delaying either the one or the other. Synchronization packets are transmitted besides normal data packets, for obtaining time stamps which are used to determine the delay difference.

摘要： A switching device is able to route the arriving data packets according to data packet destination information to dedicated output ports. The switching arrangement has, for each set of input ports in the switching device, a set of output buffers with an output buffer for storing the payload of each data packet at an address in the output buffer which pertains to the same set of output buffers and belongs to the dedicated output ports. At least one of the output buffers has a set of output queues with an output queue for each output port for storing the address of each payload stored in the corresponding output buffer. An arbiter controls a readout order of the stored addresses. For the output buffers which pertain to the same set of output ports a multiplexer multiplexes according to the readout order the payloads from the output buffers to the output ports.

摘要： A method and system for reducing arbitration latency employs speculative transmission (STX) without prior arbitration in combination with routing fabric scheduled arbitration. Packets are sent from source locations to a routing fabric through scheduled arbitration, and also through speculative arbitration, to non-contentiously allocate outputs that were not previously reserved in the routing fabric to the speculatively transmitted packets.
