Titel
Departure batch-size distribution of unbuffered crossbar packet switches
Abstract
In this letter we present an exact closed-form solution for the probability distribution of the departure batch-size at the output ports of an unbuffered crossbar based packet switch. The general case of a switch with M inputs and N outputs is considered under balanced traffic and applying the best possible arbitration scheme. In this letter, we present an exact closed-form solution for the probability distribution of the packet batch-size at the output ports of unbuffered crossbar based packet switches. The general case of a switch with M inputs and N outputs is considered under balanced traffic and using an optimum arbitration scheme. The solution can be applied to a wide range of queuing systems, even beyond the field of packet switching.
