The delay and throughput characteristics of a packet switch depend mainly on the queueing scheme and the scheduling algorithm deployed at the switch. Early research on scheduling ...
Architectures based on a non-blocking fabric, such as a crosspoint switch, are attractive for use in high-speed LAN switches, IP routers, and ATM switches. These fabrics, coupled ...
Abstract—This paper presents a novel scalable switching architecture for input queued switches with its proper arbitration algorithms. In contrast to traditional switching archit...
The parallel packet switch (PPS) extends the inverse multiplexing architecture, and is extensively used as the core of contemporary commercial switches. A key factor in the perfor...
Most common network protocols (e.g., the Internet Protocol) work with variable size packets, whereas contemporary switches still operate with fixed size cells, which are easier t...
