Heterogeneous Compilation for P4 and Caching for high-performance networking

Today’s data-center network services cover a broad spectrum that evolve rapidly which means that regularly new services need to be deployed in production networks in a timely manner. Using network programmability, a network programmer can write a precise specification of what the network behaviour should be, and this specification is translated by a compiler and executed on the hardware. The goal of the project is to allow this programmability to include automatically leveraging hardware to improve performance. The results of the project will help improve the partner’s competitiveness in this market.
