Fast and Noniterative Scheduling for Input-Queued Switches with Unbuffered Crossbars
Most high-end switches use an input-queued or a combined inputand output-queued architecture. The switch fabrics of these architectures commonly use an iterative scheduling system such as iSLIP. Iterative schedulers are not very scalable and can be slow. We propose and study a new scheduling scheme that is fast and scalable. This scheduling scheme finds a maximum matching of a modified I/O mapp...
متن کاملMulti-Stage Interconnection Network Layouts Suitable For Photonic Switching
In this paper, we present new layouts for the multi-stage interconnection networks such as shuffle, banyan and baseline networks, that are suitable for photonic switching. In these new layouts, we decrease the number of crossovers of the stage links and crossovers between inlet-outlet of stages, which are known as the main bottleneck for the increase in switch capacity when it is realized for i...
متن کاملStar-Graph based multistage interconnection network for ATM switch fabric
This paper considers a multistage interconnection network based on the Indirect Star Graph topology as a candidate for an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) switch fabric. We consider both buffered and unbuffered versions of the indirect star. The performance of three existing routing algorithms is studied, and it is found that the packet acceptance probability offered by these algorithms is unsa...
متن کاملInterconnection Network Switch Architectures and Combining Strategies 1
We have studied a variety of switch architectures for use in the multistage interconnection network of a shared memory multiprocessor. In this paper, we describe a taxonomy of buffered switch architectures and give performance results for the different types we have defined. We investigate two techniques for improving network performance in the presence of contention: the use of multiple handsh...
متن کاملComparative Study of blocking mechanisms for Packet Switched Omega Networks
Omega Networks are a famous subclass of blocking Multistage Interconnection Networks (MINs). They have been recently identified as an efficient interconnection network for a switching fabric of communication structures such as gigabit ethernet switch, terabit router, and ATM switch. Interconnection network performance is also a key factor when constructing multiprocessor systems. In this paper ...
