— The packet losses imposed by IP networks can cause long and erratic recovery delays, since senders must often use conservative loss detection and retransmission mechanisms. Thi...
— The configuration of virtual path (VP) connection services is expected to play an important role in the operation of large-scale asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks. A m...
This paper presents elastic buffers (EBs), an efficient flow-control scheme that uses the storage already present in pipelined channels in place of explicit input virtualchannel b...

Due to the overall growing demand on the network resources and tight restrictions on the power consumption, the requirements to the long-term scalability, cost and performance capa...
Scalability considerations drive the evolution of switch design from output queueing to input queueing and further to combined input and crosspoint queueing (CICQ). However, CICQ s...
