An apparatus comprising a chip comprising a plurality of nodes, a first plurality of links connecting the plurality of nodes in a first ring network having a first topology, and a second plurality of links connecting the plurality of nodes in a second ring network having a second topology, wherein the first topology is different than the second topology.

Asymmetric ring topology for reduced latency in on-chip ring networks

An apparatus comprising a chip comprising a plurality of nodes, wherein a first node from among the plurality of nodes is configured to receive a first flit comprising a first timestamp, receive a second flit comprising a second timestamp, determine whether the first flit is older than the second flit based on the first timestamp and the second timestamp, transmit the first flit before the second flit if the first flit is older than the second flit, and transmit the second flit before the first flit if the first flit is not older than the second flit.

Method and apparatus for achieving fairness in interconnect using age-based arbitration and timestamping

An apparatus comprising a plurality of nodes and a plurality of links connecting the nodes in a ring topology, wherein a first node from among the plurality of nodes is coupled to a first link from among the plurality of links, wherein the first link comprises a plurality of virtual channels, and wherein each of the plurality of virtual channels is assigned to provide service to a unique one of the plurality of nodes.
