The choice of the scheduling algorithm is a major design criteria of a switch. Whereas it is known that maximum weight matching algorithms guarantee the stability of an input queu...
Abstract--A framework for designing feedback-based scheduling algorithms is proposed for elegantly solving the notorious packet missequencing problem of a load-balanced switch. Unl...
The crossbar fabric is widely used as the interconnect of high-performance packet switches due to its low cost and scalability. There are two main variants of the crossbar fabric:...
Abstract-- Traditionally, conflict resolution in an inputbuffered switch is solved by finding a matching between inputs and outputs per time slot. To do this, a switch not only nee...
A multi-cabinet implementation of a combined input and crosspoint queued (CICQ) switch introduces a large RTT latency between the line cards and switch fabric, requiring a large cr...
