Abstract

A data stream flow-controller controls a transfer of data between a data processing device and an interconnection network. The flow controller includes interfaces for interfacing the controller on the network side and on the processing device side, a configurable storage for buffering queues of data in the controller before transfer to destination, and a programmable controller to control the storage to define queue parameters.
