Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the present invention relate to multiple parallel lookups using a pool of shared memories by proper configuration of interconnection networks. The number of shared memories reserved for each lookup is reconfigurable based on the memory capacity needed by that lookup. The shared memories are grouped into homogeneous tiles. Each lookup is allocated a set of tiles based on the memory capacity needed by that lookup. The tiles allocated for each lookup do not overlap with other lookups such that all lookups can be performed in parallel without collision. Each lookup is reconfigurable to be either hash-based or direct-access. The interconnection networks are programmed based on how the tiles are allocated for each lookup.
