  • Programmable Digital Microcircuits - a Survey with Examples of Use
    - 237 - PROGRAMMABLE DIGITAL MICROCIRCUITS - A SURVEY WITH EXAMPLES OF USE C. Verkerk CERN, Geneva, Switzerland 1. Introduction For most readers the title of these lecture notes will evoke microprocessors. The fixed instruction set microprocessors are however not the only programmable digital mi• crocircuits and, although a number of pages will be dedicated to them, the aim of these notes is also to draw attention to other useful microcircuits. A complete survey of programmable circuits would fill several books and a selection had therefore to be made. The choice has rather been to treat a variety of devices than to give an in- depth treatment of a particular circuit. The selected devices have all found useful ap• plications in high-energy physics, or hold promise for future use. The microprocessor is very young : just over eleven years. An advertisement, an• nouncing a new era of integrated electronics, and which appeared in the November 15, 1971 issue of Electronics News, is generally considered its birth-certificate. The adver• tisement was for the Intel 4004 and its three support chips. The history leading to this announcement merits to be recalled. Intel, then a very young company, was working on the design of a chip-set for a high-performance calculator, for and in collaboration with a Japanese firm, Busicom. One of the Intel engineers found the Busicom design of 9 different chips too complicated and tried to find a more general and programmable solu• tion. His design, the 4004 microprocessor, was finally adapted by Busicom, and after further négociation, Intel acquired marketing rights for its new invention.

The operating system acts as a host for applications that are run on the machine. Program execution: The operating system acts as an interface between an application and the hardware. Interrupts: InterruptsWWW.BSSVE.IN are central to operating systems as they provide an efficient way for the operating system to interact and react to its environment. Supervisor mode: Modern CPUs support something called dual mode operation. CPUs with this capability use two modes: protected mode and supervisor mode, which allow certain CPU functions to be controlled and affected only by the operating system kernel. Here, protected mode does not refer specifically to the 80286 (Intel's x86 16-bit microprocessor) CPU feature, although its protected mode is very similar to it. Memory management: Among other things, a multiprogramming operating system kernel must be responsible for managing all system memory which is currently in use by programs. www.bsscommunitycollege.in www.bssnewgeneration.in www.bsslifeskillscollege.in 2 www.onlineeducation.bharatsevaksamaj.net www.bssskillmission.in Key Points: 1.

  • A Programming Environment for Network Processors
    A Programming Environment for Network Processors Michael E. Kounavis, Andrew T. Campbell, Stephen T. Chou and John B. Vicente COMET Group, Columbia University, New York, NY 10025, USA Abstract There is growing interest in network processor technologies capable of processing packets at line rates. In this paper, we present the design, implementation and evaluation of NetBind, a programming environment for constructing data paths in network processor-based routers. NetBind balances the flexibility of network programmability against the need to process and forward packets at line speeds. To support dynamic binding of components with minimum addition of instructions in the critical path, NetBind modifies the machine language code of components at run time. To support fast data path composition, NetBind reduces the number of binding operations required for constructing data paths to a minimum set so that binding latencies are comparable to packet forwarding times. Data paths constructed using NetBind seamlessly share the resources of the same network processor. The NetBind source code described and evaluated in this paper is freely available on the Web [15] for experimentation. 1. Introduction Recently, there has been a growing interest in network processor technologies [1-4] that can support software-based implementations of the critical path while processing packets at high speeds. Network processors use specialized architectures that employ multiple processing units to offer high packet- processing throughput. We believe that introducing programmability in network processor-based routers is an important area of research that has not been fully addressed as yet. The difficulty stems from the fact network processor-based routers need to forward minimum size packets at line rates and yet support modular and extensible data paths.

In this the critical path. One solution to this problem is to optimize paper, we present the design, implementation and evaluation the code produced by a binding tool, once data path of NetBind, a high performance, flexible and scalable binding composition has taken place. Code optimization algorithms tool for dynamically constructing data paths in network can be complex and time-consuming, however, and thus not processor-based routers. The methodology that underpins NetBind balances the flexibility of network programmability suitable for applications that require fast data path against the need to process and forward packets at line speeds. composition, (e.g., data path composition on a packet-by- Data paths constructed using NetBind seamlessly share the packet basis). We believe that a binding tool for network resources of the same network processor. We compare the processor-based routers needs to balance the flexibility of performance of NetBind to the MicroACE system developed network programmability against the need to process and by Intel to support binding between software components forward packets at line rates. This poses significant running on Intel IXP1200 network processors. We evaluate challenges. these alternative approaches in terms of their binding In this paper, we present the design, implementation and overhead, and discuss how this can affect the forwarding evaluation of NetBind, a high performance, flexible and performance of IPv4 data paths running on IXP1200 network processor-based routers.
