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...
Abstract-- The problem of providing quality of service guarantees for multicast traffic over crossbar switches has received a limited attention, despite the popularity of its count...
– Crossbar-based switches are commonly used to implement routers with throughputs up to about 1 Tb/s. The advent of crossbar scheduling algorithms that provide strong performance...
—To avoid head of line blocking in switches, Virtual Output Queues (VOQs) are commonly used. However, the number of VOQs grows quadratically with the number of ports, making this...
Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switches based on shared buffering are known to have better performance and buffer utilization than input or output queued switches. Shared buffer...
