Dolphin PCIe Fabric Communications Library

Embedded software tools for High Performance Embedded Computing systems

Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions has partnered with Dolphin Interconnect Solutions to provide a PCI Express (PCIe) Fabric Communications Library supporting high-speed, low-latency peer to peer communications using Dolphin PCIe connections. This software library hides the complexities and technical details of programming directly to PCIe devices, and presents easy to use software APIs to applications developers wishing to send high-speed messages and bulk data between computing nodes.

These libraries support a wide range of Curtiss-Wright Single Board Computers (SBCs) and Digital Signal Processor (DSP) modules. Any PCIe lane width and bus speed is supported. For modules that support on-board DMA, the libraries have been optimized to make use of DMA to maximize data throughput and reduce CPU overhead.

For DSP and High Performance Embedded Computing (HPEC) systems, the PCIe Fabric Communications Library is available as part of our OpenHPEC Accelerator Suite, along with a suite of proven supercomputer development, performance and management tools. The Library is also available to order separately, for use with Curtiss-Wright Intel and Power Architecture SBCs.
