Hardware for multiconnected  networks: the design flow

Giuseppe Campobello, Giuseppe Patanè and Marco Russo

Abstract

This paper presents an architectural study that may be used to design and develop a general, efficient hardware for multiconnected networks. Starting from the constraints, the proposed design flow allows an accurate evaluation of cost and performance of the final implementation. The generality of the architecture permits the realization of networks with practically any size or topologies.
