It implements a 3-D torus topology designed for low latency and reliable transmission of messages. Cut-through switching allows for low latency beyond nearest neighbor communication. The feature rich network EXTOLL was selected by the EU-Project DEEP to implement a separate network allowing for the virtualization and aggregation of accelerator resources into a so called Booster. EXTOLL's unique feature of a PCIe root-complex allows for autonomous boot and operation of accelerators within the Booster sub-system. SUMMARY:Something New in HPC?
