Description
Responding to ever-escalating requirements for performance, flexibility, and economy, the networking industry has opted to build products
around network processors. To help meet the formidable challenges of this emerging field, the editors of this volume created the first
Workshop on Network Processors, a forum for scientists and engineers to discuss latest research in the architecture, design, programming,
and use of these devices. This series of volumes contains not only the results of the annual workshops but also specially commissioned
material that highlights industry's latest network processors.
Like its predecessor volume, Network Processor Design: Principles and
Practices, Volume 2 defines and advances the field of network processor design. Volume 2 contains 20 chapters written by the field's
leading academic and industrial researchers, with topics ranging from architectures to programming models, from security to quality of
service.
Audience:
Processor designers and system designers in research and industry
