Claims19
A method for managing cartridges that are electrically coupled together, comprising:
- obtaining general purpose command instructions from a chassis, wherein the chassis houses the cartridges and wherein the cartridges include processing resources and memory resources to operate an application;
- and
- sending the general purpose command instructions to a number of the cartridges.
An apparatus for managing a plurality of systems on a chip (SoCs) that are electrically coupled together, comprising:
- a chassis with positions to physically connect to individual SoCs;
- and
- the chassis comprising a management system in communication with a group of the positions.
A system for managing cartridges that are electrically coupled together, comprising:
- a management system to:
- send individualized general purpose command instructions to the cartridges connected to a chassis, wherein the cartridges include processing resources and memory resources;
- allocate shared resources among the cartridges;
- and
- provide switching services to the cartridges using instructions that are agnostic to the processing resources of the cartridges.
