ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for packet level prioritization in interconnection networks. An embodiment of an apparatus includes a transmitter to transmit a data stream to a recipient apparatus, the data stream including a plurality of data packets, the data packets including data packets of a first priority and data packets of a second priority. The apparatus further includes a network unit to direct the operation of the transmitter, the network unit to divide the data stream into multiple sub-streams, including a first sub-stream for data packets of the first priority and a second sub-stream for data packets of the second priority.
