    摘要: A client interface supporting a plurality of peripheral channels and a network channel. The peripheral channels include a maintenance channel, message input channel, message output channel, express channel and several DMA channels. The client interface routes packets from the network to the peripheral resources and prioritizes the dispatching of packets onto the network. Express packets and message packets are given priority over DMA type packets. Priority to dispatch is rotated among the DMA channels.

    摘要: A novel system and method for processing memory instructions. One embodiment of the invention provides a method for processing a memory instruction. In this embodiment, the method includes obtaining a memory request; storing the memory request in an Initial Request Queue (IRQ); and processing the memory request from the IRQ by a cache controller, wherein processing includes: identifying a type of the memory request, and processing the memory request in both a local cache and an Force Order Queue (FOQ), wherein processing includes determining if a portion of an address associated with the memory request matches one or more partial addresses in the FOQ and, if the memory request misses in the cache and the address does not match one or more partial addresses in the FOQ, adding the memory request to the FOQ and allocating a cache line in the local cache corresponding to the local cache miss.

    摘要: A vector processor or vector processing computer has a first vector register operable to store two or more vector elements that together comprise a single first large integer and a second vector register operable to store two or more vector elements that together comprise a single second large integer. An adder having a carry-in bit is operable to add the large integer in the first vector register to the large integer in the second vector register by using the carry-in bit to add sequential elements of the vector registers.
