| Abstract: |
|
The DEEP project will lay the focus of its presentation on the novel EXTOLL interconnect developed at University of Heidelberg. It implements a 3-D torus topology designed for low latency and reliable transmission of messages. Cut-through switching allows for low latency beyond nearest neighbor communication. EXTOLL is used to implement a separate network within the DEEP system allowing for the virtualization and aggregation of accelerator resources into a so called Booster. EXTOLL's unique feature of a PCIe root-complex allows for autonomous boot and operation of the MIC accelerators within the DEEP's Booster sub-system. |
