Abstract :
We consider the problem of determining the multistage network with the fewest crosspoints for given sizes of input and output terminal sets, traffic load, number of stages and blocking probability. In this paper, we present a solution for this problem when the sizes of the input and output terminal sets are greater than a certain value.
