Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods are provided. In one example, a system is described that includes circuits to route data using a first adaptive routing technique; detect a ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below a threshold; and in response to detecting the ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below the threshold, switch from routing the data using the first adaptive routing technique to routing the data using a second adaptive routing technique.
Claims20
A system for providing adaptive routing, the system comprising one or more circuits to:
- route data using a first adaptive routing technique;
- detect a ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below a threshold;
- and
- in response to detecting the ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below the threshold, switch from routing the data using the first adaptive routing technique to routing the data using a second adaptive routing technique.
A switch comprising one or more circuits to:
- route one or more egress flows of packets using a first adaptive routing technique;
- detect a ratio of ingress flows to the one or more egress flows is below a threshold;
- and
- in response to detecting the ratio of ingress flows to the one or more egress flows is below the threshold, switch from routing the one or more egress flows of packets using the first adaptive routing technique to routing the one or more egress flows of packets using a second adaptive routing technique.
A method for providing adaptive routing, the method comprising:
- routing data using a first adaptive routing technique;
- detecting a ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below a threshold;
- and
- in response to detecting the ratio of ingress flows to egress flows is below the threshold, switching from routing the data using the first adaptive routing technique to routing the data using a second adaptive routing technique.
