- In this paper, we present a highly customizable and rapidly reconfigurable multi-core packet processing architecture that provides energy and area efficiency while retaining flexibility. Presented architecture with its agile reconfigurability permits time-critical adaptability where resources can be re-clustered at run time in few cycles, hence, maintaining efficiency if requirements of the use-case change. We elaborate the flexibility and adaptability of our architecture and we report its evaluation results. For evaluation, we performed the widely-used UDP/IP and we compared our proposed architecture to low-power 32-bit general purpose processors, a custom ASIC implementation and a programmable protocol processor. Compared to GPP-based solutions, our architecture is 20-34 times more energy efficient while providing 2.4-4.1 times higher throughput. While retaining the programmability, the proposed solution achieved 78% of the energy efficiency of hardwired ASIC implementation. Compared to a programmable protocol processor, our solution has 2.6 times more throughput and requires only a third of the gate count. lastly, we quantified the worst-case time and average-case time required for time-critical adaptability when reconfiguration occurs during a real-life Voice-Over IP traffic.
