Abstract :
Proposes an ATM switch architecture using multiple banyan networks connected in parallel (MBCP) which can resolve the inherent blocking problems in banyan-based switches. In various traffic simulations, the MBCP switch has shown very good performance in terms of packet loss rate, switching latency, and hardware complexity under heavy traffic load and nonuniform traffic patterns for large-scale ATM switching applications
