Abstract—Input buffered switch architecture has become attractive for implementing high performance routers and expanding use of the Internet sees an increasing need for quality ...
On-chip networks are critical to the scaling of future multicore processors. The challenge for on-chip network is to reduce the cost including power consumption and area while pro...
The ever increasing gap between processor and memory speed, sometimes referred to as the Memory Wall problem [42], has a very negative impact on performance. This mismatch will be...
— Three-stage non-blocking switching fabrics are the next step in scaling current crossbar switches to many hundreds or few thousands of ports. Congestion (output contention) man...
