 Token Relabeling in a Tagged Token Data-Flow Architecture
A direct structure access approach called token relabeling scheme is presented in which all array operations can be performed without the use of any intermediary structure memory.
A deterministic simulation of Arvind and K.P. Gostelow's tagged-token data-flow architecture (1982) is undertaken to validate the graph designs and evaluate the performance of the graphs.
It is shown that the direct access graphs present better performance with regard to execution time, speedup, and resource utilization.
