ABSTRACT:
A number of storage units and a number of state machines are provided to reorder interleaved ATM data cells for a number of channels incoming to a networked host computer. The storage units store the incoming ATM data cells, a number of data structures tracking the stored ATM data cells for the channels and the free resources, and an unload schedule queue. The state machines load and unload the incoming ATM data cells, and update the tracking data structures and schedule queue accordingly.
