  • Abstract
    The `virtual cut-through switching¿¿ method of message transmission in computer communication is modified to achieve further reduction of message transmission delays. A local rerouting feature is also added, so that this `modified cut-through switching¿¿ method sustains the ability to adjust the message transmission path in the face of fast fluctuations in traffic-flow conditions. The hardware architecture for the implementation of this method is also presented.
