초록

입력큐방식의 교환기는 간결하며 고속교환을 위한 효과적인 교환방법이나 입력 측의 큐에서 발생하는 HOL-블로킹(HOL-Blocking)은 패킷들의 대기시간을 크게 증가시켜 전체 시스템의 효율을 58%로 제한한다. 이를 해결하는 방법은 별도의 스케줄러(scheduler, contention controller)를 두어 블로킹의 방지 및 높은 처리율을 얻고 있다. 대부분의 스케줄러의 구현은 중앙집중방식으로 구현되는데 이는 다양한 교환기의 구성을 어렵게 한다. 본 논문에서는 입력포트별로 간단하면서 분산된 형태의 스케줄러를 소개하고 모의실험을 통하여 성능을 검증한다.

Input queueing is useful for high bandwidth switches and routers because of lower complexity and fewer circuits than output queueing. The input queueing switch, however, suffers HOL-Blocking, which limits the throughput to 58%. To get around this low throughput, many input queueing switches have centralized scheduler, which centralized scheduler restrict the design of the switch architecture. To overcome this problem, we propose a simple scheduler called PRR(Pipelined Round Robin), which is intrinsically distributed and presents to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheduling.
