    摘要: A method for exchanging data between first and second functional units includes the following steps. In a first handshake procedure, data is exchanged corresponding to a communication thread selected by the first functional unit, while independently in a second handshake procedure, information relating to a status of at least one communication thread is exchanged from the second to the first functional unit. The information enables the first functional unit to anticipate the possibility of exchanging data for the at least one communication thread.

    摘要: The invention relates to a data processing system and a method for synchronizing data traffic. The data processing system according to the invention comprises a conversion unit, which conversion unit is arranged to convert a first flow control scheme applied in a first sub-network into a second flow control scheme applied in a second sub-network. The conversion unit may cooperate with or be integrated with another component, for example a component which performs conversion of operating frequency between sub-networks (clock-domain crossing). For the correct functioning of flow control it is necessary that separate flow control schemes are used for respectively the first sub-network and the second sub-network. The conversion unit performs a conversion between these schemes. For example, if the flow control schemes are credit-based the conversion unit computes the correct amount of credits for the first flow control scheme, based on the amount of credits available in the second flow control scheme. If necessary, credit conversion is performed. The latter is necessary when the flit sizes are different in the first and second sub-network, for example. The conversion unit translates the credits from the second sub-network (which credits represent a certain amount of data elements) into credits for the first sub-network. The number of credits may be different in respectively the first and second sub-network, for the same amount of data elements.

    摘要: An integrated circuit comprising a plurality of processing modules M, S and a network N; RN arranged for providing at least one connection between a first and at least one second module M, S is provided. Said connection supports transactions comprising outgoing messages from the first module to the second modules and return messages from the second modules to the first module. Said integrated circuit comprises at least one dropping means DM for dropping data exchanged by said first and second module M, S. Accordingly, an alternative scheme for transaction completion is provided, where full and immediate transaction completion is merely applied for certain cases. The invention is based on the idea to allow the dropping of data in certain cases.
