Abstract :
A new scheduling algorithm is proposed to improve on existing algorithms designed for input-queued ATM switches. By assigning a session weight according to its queue length normalised by its rate and using maximum weight matching to obtain a match, the proposed algorithm can avoid starvation of slow sessions, thus providing good delay properties as well as fair services, and at the same time reducing traffic burstiness
