Data-driven intelligent networking systems and methods are provided. The system can accommodate dynamic traffic while applying injection limits to different traffic classes at an ingress edge port. The system can maintain state information of individual packet flows, which can be set up or released dynamically based on injected data. Each flow can be provided with a flow-specific input queue upon arriving at a switch. Packets of a respective flow can be acknowledged after reaching the egress point of the network, and the acknowledgement packets can be sent back to the ingress point of the flow along the same data path. Furthermore, an edge switch can dynamically allocate the ingress port bandwidth among the traffic classes that are active at a given moment.

Innovative Interconnect Design for Package Architecture to Improve Latency

An integrated circuit includes a package substrate that includes first and second electrical traces. The integrated circuit includes first, second, third, and fourth configurable dies, which are mounted on the package substrate. The first and second configurable dies are arranged in a first row.
