— Combined input-crosspoint buffered (CICB) packet switches with dedicated crosspoint buffers require a minimum amount of memory in the buffered crossbar of N2 × k × L, where N...
— The amount of memory in buffered crossbars in combined input-crosspoint buffered switches is proportional to the number of crosspoints, or O(N2 ), where N is the number of port...
— The aim of this paper is to simulate the interaction of a large number of TCP controlled flows and UDP flows sharing many routers/links, from the knowledge of the network par...
— There is growing interest in designing high speed routers with small buffers that store only tens of packets. Recent studies suggest that TCP NewReno, with the addition of a pa...

1 Routers need buffers to store and forward packets, especially when there is network congestion. With current memory technology, neither the SRAM nor the DRAM alone is suitabl...
