Abstract :
The analysis of split-buffered multistage interconnection networks (SMINs) under the favorite input load is considered. The favorite load is a typical nonuniform traffic pattern which includes the uniform load as its special case. A new analytical model of SMINs under the favorite load is developed. It is shown that the SMINs generally perform better under the favorite load than under the uniform load. The analytical model also shows potential for evaluating other high-performance switch designs
