Abstract |
Input queued switch is useful for high bandwidth switches and routers because of lower complexity and fewer circuits than output queued. The input queued switch, however, suffers the HOL-Blocking, which limits its throughput to 58%. To overcome HOL-Blocking problem, many input-queued switch controlled by a scheduling algorithm. Most scheduling algorithms are implemented based on a centralized scheduler which restrict the design of the switch architecture. In this paper, we propose a simple scheduler called Pipelined Round Robin (PRR) which is intrinsically distributed by each input port. We presents to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheduler. |
