OBIG: the Architecture of an Output Buffered Switch with Input Groups for Large Switches
Wladek Olesinski, Hans Eberle, Nils Gura · 2007
Large, fast switches require novel approaches to architecture and scheduling. In this paper, we propose theOutputBufferedSwitchwithInputGroups(OBIG). We present simulation results, discuss the implementation, and show how our architecture can be used to build single-stage (flat) switches with multi-terabit-per-second throughput and hundreds of ports.
