摘要:Many architectures of internet routers, ATM and ethernet switches have been proposed and analysed in literature. Theoretically reliable and valid solutions have been developed to achieve high performances but a lot of them are not feasible in practice for commercial and technological reasons. Few papers develop the implementation and simulation aspects. The objective of this paper is the design of a packet switch with a minimum cost and hardware complexity. We propose an input-queuing architecture using a multistage interconnection network and a simple cell selection policy implemented by hardware. The switch is described and simulated using a VHDL language. Performances in terms of throughput and cell loss are evaluated.
