Abstract

Provided herein are implementations for managing discovered chiplets based on a physical topology. In particular, a method includes receiving, by a control chiplet, a discovery signal from a first subordinate chiplet, the control chiplet being a portion of a processing unit of a package. The method further includes determining, by the control chiplet, a physical topology of the first subordinate chiplet relative to the control chiplet based on the discovery signal. The method further includes managing, by the control chiplet, operation of the first subordinate chiplet based on the physical topology of the first subordinate chiplet.
