METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FULL-DUPLEX MESOCHRONOUS COMMUNICATIONS AND CORRESPONDING COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT |
摘要 |
Data transport is provided in a communication network such as a Network-on-Chip arrangement via full-duplex mesochronous links between routers. Request signals and response signals are exchanged between these routers acting alternatively as an initiator and a target operating in respective clock domains at opposite ends of respective full-duplex mesochronous links. The request initiator flow control signals are monitored at the target end of the link while the response target flow control signals are monitored at the initiator end of the link. The monitoring action involves ascertaining if a request has been granted at the initiator end of the link and if a response has been granted at the target end of said link thus correspondingly managing the data flow over the link.
