SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING EFFICIENT MESSAGE MATCHING IN A NETWORK INTERFACE CONTROLLER (NIC) - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18544914 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING EFFICIENT MESSAGE MATCHING IN A NETWORK INTERFACE CONTROLLER (NIC)
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a network interface controller (NIC) capable of performing message passing interface (MPI) list matching. The NIC includes a host interface, a network interface, and a hardware list-processing engine (LPE) to perform MPI list matching based on received match requests.
- Host interface couples NIC to host device
- Network interface couples NIC to network
- LPE receives match requests and performs MPI list matching
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in high-performance computing clusters, data centers, and cloud computing environments where efficient message passing is crucial.
Problems Solved
1. Improved efficiency in message passing interface list matching 2. Enhanced performance in parallel computing systems
Benefits
1. Faster data processing and communication 2. Reduced latency in message passing 3. Enhanced scalability in distributed computing environments
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing communication and data processing in supercomputers, scientific research facilities, and large-scale data centers.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be network interface controllers with basic message passing capabilities but lacking specialized hardware for MPI list matching.

Original Abstract Submitted
A network interface controller (NIC) capable of performing message passing interface (MPI) list matching is provided. The NIC can include a host interface, a network interface, and a hardware list-processing engine (LPE). The host interface can couple the NIC to a host device. The network interface can couple the NIC to a network. During operation, the LPE can receive a match request and perform MPI list matching based on the received match request.
