  • Abstract
    Forwarding logic in greedy routing systems requires less memory and fewer components than longest-prefix match-based forwarding in IP routing. We demonstrate an all-optical design of a greedy router with desirable scalability and energy-efficiency characteristics enabling high data rate throughput.
