Most common network protocols (e.g., the Internet Protocol) work with variable size packets, whereas contemporary switches still operate with fixed size cells, which are easier t...
Most high-end switches use an input-queued or a combined input- and output-queued architecture. The switch fabrics of these architectures commonly use an iterative scheduling syst...
A QoS provisioned CIOQ switch using crossbar structure with m parallel lines per output port is proposed in this paper. The packets at input buffers are transferred to the output ...
— Input-queued switches are used extensively in the design of high-speed routers. As switch speeds and sizes increase, the design of the switch scheduler becomes a primary challe...

— We consider cell-based switch architectures in which the speedup of the internal switching fabric is not large enough to avoid input buffering. These architectures require a sc...
