In contrast, the speed of cross-chip connection, or even cross-system connection, has not been enhanced at the same rate, and gradually became the bottleneck of current computing systems. PCI, PCI-X, and PCI-Express epitomize the evolvement of our peripheral connecting strategy. By radical change in architecture, we successfully increase throughput of connection facilities in one autonomous system. We propose a architecture for verifying Advanced Switch hardware. Also successfully verify the compliance of the design under test's features to the given protocol. © 2005 IEEE.application/pdf195236 bytesapplication/pdfen-USComputation theory; Computer architecture; Microprocessor chips; Switches; Advanced Switch hardware; Autonomous systems; Cross-system connection; Switchingconference paper10.1109/DELTA.2006.22-s2.0-33847123529http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/200704191001162/1/01581212.pdf
