Abstract: Disclosed is method for operating an interposer that includes assigning a binary port weight to a plurality of input ports of the interposer. The sum of all of the port weights is less than or equal to a number of traversals available to the interposer in a cycle. A traversal counter is set zero at the beginning of each cycle. The output of the traversal counter is a binary number of m bits. A mask is generated when a bit of the traversal counter transitions from a zero to a one. The mask is generated having the m−k+1 bit of the mask equal to one and all other bits of the mask equal to zero. Data is transmitted from each port when both the binary port weight and the mask have a one in the same bit position.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for terminating a virtual network function (VNF) instance according to termination requirements of the VNF instance. The termination requirements may be defined in a VNF descriptor corresponding to the VNF instance. A network function virtualization (NFV) management entity may obtain the termination requirements and initiate termination of the VNF instance based on the obtained termination requirements.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for inter-process communication are provided. A circuit may have a plurality of clusters, and at least one cluster may have a computation element (CE), a memory operatively coupled with the CE, and an autonomic transport system (ATS) block operatively coupled with the CE and the memory. The ATS block may be configured to perform inter-process communication (IPC) for the at least one cluster. In one embodiment, the ATS block may transfer a message to a different cluster based on a request from the CE. In another embodiment, the ATS block may receive a message by allocating a buffer in the memory and write the message into the buffer. The ATS block may also be configured to manage synchronization and schedule tasks for the CE.
