| 20110206053 | Hierarchical Network Topology - A network including a hierarchical structure of nodes is described. The structure of nodes includes n layers including n−1 layers of switch nodes and 1 layer of computational nodes. Each layer in the structure can include m | 08-25-2011 |
| 20100250784 | Addressing Scheme and Message Routing for a Networked Device - Methods and apparatus for addressing and/or routing packets in a network are described. A networked device in the network can include a hierarchical structure of nodes and a processor. The hierarchical structure of nodes includes n layers including n−1 layers of switch nodes and 1 layer of computational nodes. L represents a layer in the hierarchical structure and is an integer with L=0 representing a lowest layer and L=n−1 representing a highest layer. The networked device can include a processor configured for processing n groups of bits received in a packet, where each computational node is fully addressed by the n groups of bits and each switch node of a layer L is fully addressed by n−L groups of most significant bits. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100246581 | Method and Apparatus for Packet Routing - Methods and apparatus for routing a packet in a network are described. The network has a topology characterized by a hierarchical structure of nodes including n layers. L represents a layer in the structure and is an integer with L=0 representing a lowest layer and L=n−1 representing a highest layer. The method includes receiving at least a packet header of a packet at a first node and based on the packet header, determining whether to transmit the packet to a second node in either layer L, layer L+1, or layer L−1. The packet can be transmitted to the second node as soon as the packet is received at the first node without waiting to receive the entire packet and without copying the packet prior to transmission from the first node. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100246437 | Network Topology - A network including a hierarchical structure of nodes is described. The structure of nodes includes n layers including n−1 layers of switch nodes and 1 layer of computational nodes. Each layer in the structure can include m | 09-30-2010 |
