Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a token indicating a data chunk becomes available in a first circular buffer of a pre-determined size from a direct memory access component, determining that a computation is to be performed with data including the data chunk based on the token, and generating one or more addresses corresponding to one or more data chunks within the first circular buffer that are to be retrieved for the computation, where a generated address is subtracted by the pre-determined size of the first circular buffer when the generated address is greater than a pre-determined maximum associated with the first circular buffer, and where the generated address is added by the pre-determined size of the first circular buffer when the generated address is less than a pre-determined minimum associated with the first circular buffer.
