KeyStone Architecture Multicore Navigator

Preface

The Multicore Navigator uses a Queue Manager Subsystem (QMSS) and a Packet DMA (PKTDMA) to control and implement high-speed data packet movement within the device. This reduces the traditional internal communications load on the device DSPs significantly, increasing overall system performance.
