  • Abstract
    An efficient I/O subsystem enables cost-effective network processing. To improve high-speed data transfer, the I/O subsystem sends data directly into the processing core´s register file. An implementation of this subsystem in a single-chip network processor , the Pro3, can sustain advanced inspection firewall processing of 2.5-Gbps TCP traffic.
