摘要
A protocol for latency-insensitive design with early evaluation is presented. The protocol is based on a symmetric view of the system in which tokens carrying information move in the forward direction and anti-tokens canceling information move in the backward direction. An implementation of the protocol and an example illustrate the flow for converting a regular synchronous design into an elastic circuit with early evaluation.
