  • Abstract
    The Apsara algorithm is an input-queued switch scheduler that uses limited parallelism to find a matching in a single iteration, as compared to the O(N3) iterations of the more common maximum-weight matching algorithm. The Apsara algorithm also achieves a throughput of up to 100 percent and has very good delay properties
