✦ Synopsis


A model for the analysis of multistage switches based on shared bu!er switching for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks is developed, and the results are compared with the simulation. Switches constructed from shared bu!er switches do not su!er from the head of line blocking which is the common problem in simple input bu!ering. The analysis models the state of the entire switch and extends the model introduced by Turner to global #ow control with backpressure mechanism. It is shown that bu!er utilization is better and throughput improves signi"cantly compared with the same switch using local #ow control policy.

Performance analysis of an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch involves modelling the input traffic source, the switching mechanism and the cell departure process. An important issue, which determines the overall accuracy in performance evaluation of the switch, is the use of an appropriate prob

We describe the development and analysis of an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch architecture based on input-output buffers, a sort-Banyan network and a feedback acknowledgement (ACK) signal to be sent to the input unit. This is an input-buffer and output-buffer type of switch but with the dif
