As the number of cores on a single chip increases with more recent technologies, a packet-switched on-chip interconnection network has become a de facto communication paradigm for ...
Abstract. System area networks (SANs) need to support low-fanout multicasts efficiently in addition to broadcasts and unicasts. A critical component in SANs is the switch, which i...

ABSTRACT: Switch chips are building blocks for computer and communication systems. Switches need internal buffering, because of output contention; shared buffering is known to perf...
As demand for bandwidth increases in systems-on-a-chip and chip multiprocessors, networks are fast replacing buses and dedicated wires as the pervasive interconnect fabric for on-...
— Crossbars are main components of communication switches used to construct interconnection networks. Scheduling algorithm controls contention in switch architecture. Several sch...
