A router design for torus networks that significantly reduces message latency over traditional wormhole routers is presented in this paper. This new router implements virtual cut-...
Internet routers require buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. The buffers need to be fast, and so ideally they should be small enough to use fast memory technologie...
— Active queue management (AQM) in routers has been proposed as a solution to some of the scalability issues associated with TCP’s pure end-to-end approach to congestion contro...
Network operators need high-capacity router architectures that can offer scalability, provide throughput and performance guarantees, and maintain packet ordering. However, previou...
