Hi all.
I have questions regarding the network functioning in Gems.
What I figured out is, all 'Perfect' Switches are woken up in an event
driven fashion and the wakeup() method is called. This happen's whenever
there is an 'event' for that particular switch to handle. The switch
then processes the request.
I have 2 questions:
1. Where is the wakeup() call being made ?
2. I followed the code and figured out that the switch transfers the
message from m_in to m_out. How is the message being transfered into the
next switch? Is link contention being modeled?
I have been trying hard to figure out these things and any detailed help
would be really helpful.
Best Regards,
Niket.
