4 Evaluation In this Section we firstly present our set-up to measure the area, power and
performance (Throughput and latency) required to implement the router and
the routing tables. FPGAs have a restricted amount of resources and router
design must scale nicely, i.e., do not explode in terms of resources (or power) as
the number of ports or the size of the CAMs increase. Therefore we measure the
area and power consumption of the approaches to show their scalability. Finally
we measure throughput and latency as they are the most important performance
metrics for HPC systems.
