ROUTER, INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE HAVING SAID ROUTER, AND PACKET ROUTING METHOD

摘要

A router includes: a flit arrival time management section that records flit arrival time which is the time at which the packet is received for the first time, transmission interval of the packet which are acquired from a control packet transmitted prior to the first transmission of a packet and input and output channels of the control packet and requires a crossbar section for an output channel from which the packet is supposed to be output before the flit arrival time; a switch assignment section that performs arbitration on the output channel request and performs input/output connection relationship setting processing; and a switch assignment verification section that verifies whether a result of the input/output connection relationship setting processing coincides with the actual routing of the packet. The cross bar section performs switching of the arriving packet using a result of the input/output connection relationship processing.
