Abstract: A cluster computer server is configured after a system reset or other configuration event. Each node of a fabric of the cluster compute server is employed, for purposes of configuration, as a cell in a cellular automaton, thereby obviating the need for a special configuration network to communicate configuration information from a central management unit. Instead, the nodes communicate configuration information using the same fabric interconnect that is used to communicate messages during normal execution of software services at the nodes.

Abstract: A system and method for efficient arbitration of memory access requests are described. One or more functional units generate memory access requests for a partitioned memory. An arbitration unit stores the generated requests and selects a given one of the stored requests. The arbitration unit identifies a given partition of the memory which stores a memory location targeted by the selected request. The arbitration unit determines whether one or more other stored requests access memory locations in the given partition. The arbitration unit sends each of the selected memory access request and the identified one or more other memory access requests to the memory to be serviced out of order.
