Abstract:
Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) nodes are dynamically configured via SMP sockets that use SMP optically-connected switches to dynamically connect SMP optically-connected links connected to the SMP nodes to form SMP domains based on best matched expected workloads for coherent traffic for exchanging SMP coherent information. The SMP nodes are dynamically added to one of the SMP domains and/or dynamically removed from one of the SMP domains.
