Abstract :
The protocol independent switch fabric 128 Gb/s provides per-flow quality of service (QoS) in the next-generation Internet. The VLSI challenges stem from the large number of QoS channels to be managed, the sophisticated scheduling algorithm used, and the need to relax chip synchronization requirements in systems.
