TECHNOLOGIES FOR OFFLOADING ACCELERATION TASK SCHEDULING OPERATIONS TO ACCELERATOR SLEDS
Technologies for offloading acceleration task scheduling operations to accelerator sleds include a compute device to receive a request from a compute sled to accelerate the execution of a job, which includes a set of tasks. The compute device is also to analyze the request to generate metadata indicative of the tasks within the job, a type of acceleration associated with each task, and a data dependency between the tasks. Additionally the compute device is to send an availability request, including the metadata, to one or more micro-orchestrators of one or more accelerator sleds communicatively coupled to the compute device. The compute device is further to receive availability data from the one or more micro-orchestrators, indicative of which of the tasks the micro-orchestrator has accepted for acceleration on the associated accelerator sled. Additionally, the compute device is to assign the tasks to the one or more micro-orchestrators as a function of the availability data.

CXL fabric extensions
One aspect of the instant application can provide a networking device. The networking device can include a set of Compute Express Link (CXL) ports, a set of non-CXL ports, a set of bridge circuits associated with the set of CXL ports, and an interconnect. A respective bridge circuit can include a packet-conversion subcircuit to convert a CXL packet received at a corresponding CXL port to a customized packet and a protocol-conversion subcircuit to convert a CXL protocol to a customized protocol implemented by the networking device. The interconnect can switch customized packets among the CXL and non-CXL ports based on the customized protocol.
Queue protection using a shared global memory reserve
The subject technology relates to the management of a shared buffer memory in a network switch. Systems, methods, and machine readable media are provided for receiving a data packet at a first network queue from among a plurality of network queues, determining if a fill level of a queue in a shared buffer of the network switch exceeds a dynamic queue threshold, and in an event that the fill level of the shared buffer exceeds the dynamic queue threshold, determining if a fill level of the first network queue is less than a static queue minimum threshold.
Network architecture with harmonic connections
A computer network organized in a logical grid having rows and columns can include network nodes coupled according to harmonics. Each network node can be coupled to network nodes of the same row using a set of horizontal strands according to a set of horizontal harmonics. Each of the horizontal harmonics specifies a node distance along the row between adjacent connection points on the corresponding horizontal strand. Each network node can also be coupled to network nodes of the same column using a set of vertical strands according to a set of vertical harmonics. Each of the vertical harmonics specifies a node distance along the column between adjacent connection points on the corresponding vertical strand.
