A technique is provided for striping packets across pipelines of a processing engine within a network switch. The processing engine comprises a plurality of processors arrayed as pipeline rows and columns embedded between input and output buffers of the engine. Each pipeline row or cluster includes a context memory having a plurality of window buffers of a defined size. Each packet is apportioned into fixed-sized contexts corresponding to the defined window size associated with each buffer of the context memory. The technique includes a mapping mechanism for correlating each context with a relative position within the packet, i.e., the beginning, middle and end contexts of a packet. The mapping mechanism facilitates reassembly of the packet at the output buffer, while obviating any any out-of-order issues involving the particular contexts of a packet.

A method for controlling a torque converter clutch in an automatic transmission of a vehicle that includes an engine, an accelerator pedal and wheels, the converter clutch alternately connecting and disconnecting the engine and transmission when the clutch is engaged and disengaged. The method includes determining that the vehicle is either ascending a grade or operating in a loaded condition, determining that the clutch is engaged, determining whether the vehicle is operating in a curve, preventing disengagement of the clutch if the vehicle is either ascending a grade or operating in a loaded condition and the vehicle is operating in a curve, and allowing disengagement of the clutch if the vehicle is neither ascending a grade nor operating in a loaded condition.

A system and method for enabling a processor to access a memory not directly coupled to the processor. A memory request, including a request identifier field, is issued by a processor to a local memory management unit (MMU). Using the request identifier field, the local MMU determines whether the memory request should be issued by the local memory management unit (MMU) to a local memory, or should be transferred by the local MMU to a remote MMU and issued by the remote MMU to a remote memory, the remote memory associated with a different processor. In this manner, the remote MMU issues certain memory requests on behalf of the local processor and returns any results back to the local processor.

A technique modifies data transferred from a source to a destination on an intermediate node in a network. According to the technique, a processor of the node issues commands to modify the data. The commands are held in a data structure and not performed on the data until the data is transferred from the source to the destination. As the data is transferred the commands contained in the data structure are performed and the data is modified as directed by the commands.
