In some embodiments, the platform assigns, based on the performance attributes, a corresponding set of the plurality of queues to each of a plurality of processing nodes of the platform. In some embodiments, the assigning of a corresponding set of queues to a given one of the plurality of processing nodes causes instantiation of: a first set of one or more dequeuing threads and a second set of one or more processing threads.

Embodiments herein describe a SoC that includes a NoC that supports both strict and relax ordering requests. That is, some applications may require strict ordering where requests transmitted from the same ingress logic to different egress logic blocks are performed sequentially. However, other applications may not require strict ordering, such as interleaved writes to memory. In those applications, relax ordering can be used were the same ingress logic block can transmit multiple requests to different egress logic blocks in parallel. For example, an ingress logic block may receive a first request that is indicated as being a relaxed ordered request. After transmitting the request to an egress logic block, the ingress logic block may receive a second request. The ingress logic block can transmit the second request to a different egress logic block without waiting for a response for the first request.
