Abstract
A graphics processing unit (GPU) includes a packet management component that automatically aggregates data from input packets. In response to determining that a received first input packet does not indicate a send condition, and in response to determining that a generated output packet would be smaller than an output size threshold, the packet management component aggregates data corresponding to the first input packet with data corresponding to a second input packet stored at a packet buffer. In response to determining that a received third input packet indicates a send condition, the packet management component sends the aggregated data to a compute unit in an output packet and performs an operation indicated by the send condition.
