Abstract: A merge sort circuit can include a parallel merge sort core that performs a partial merge on two input tuples, each containing a number P of data elements sorted according to a sort key, to produce a sorted output tuple of P data elements. Input data blocks to be merged can be stored in first and second block buffers. The block buffers can receive data from a vector memory read interface that reads groups of at least P data elements at a time. Loading of data elements into the block buffers can be based on respective fill levels of the block buffers.

Abstract: A data moving processor includes a code memory coupled to a code fetch circuit and a decode circuit coupled to the code fetch circuit. An address stack is coupled to the decode circuit and configured to store address data. A general purpose stack is coupled to the decode circuit and configured to store other data. The data moving processor uses data from the general purpose stack to perform calculations. The data moving processor uses address data from the address stack to identify source and destination memory locations. The address data may be used to drive an address line of a memory during a read or write operation. The address stack and general purpose stack are separately controlled using bytecode.

Abstract: In order to be able to use a smaller routing table (4) and, thus, to reduce the costs and power consumption and to improve the performance of an IP router, it is proposed to extract a destination address identifier (ADR) from a data packet to be forwarded by the IP router, compress the extracted destination address identifier (ADR) by using a lossless data compression algorithm, and compare the compressed destination address identifier with entries stored in the routing table (4) so as to find a correspondence between the destination address identifier and one of the entries of the routing table (4). Each entry of the routing table (4) corresponds to a possible or available forwarding address of the IP router, the forwarding addresses having been compressed with the same data compression algorithm as the destination address identifier.
