| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | In recent years, an increasingly large amount of high-definition video is being streamed over various networks such as the Internet. TCP/IP is commonly used as a standard communication protocol on those networks, and most of the time the protocol is processed by CPUs. However, the higher CPU processing power needed in order to handle the large amount of data being carried by video streams, etc., has been causing several issues such as higher required operating frequency and/or increased power consumption, especially in embedded systems. In order to solve these issues, we have designed and implemented a hardware-based TCP/IP offload engine, called NPEngineTM. Compared to a conventional embedded CPU, NPEngineTM achieves about 80 times higher throughput at the same operating frequency, and 22 to 28 times higher throughput at the same power consumption. In this paper, we describe NPEngineTM focusing on its key design aspects (hybrid processing, direct data transfer and pipelined processing), and its performance evaluation results. | |
