VLSI design of a priority arbitrator for shared buffer ATM switches

چکیده
Priority arbitration is an essential part of the ATM switches in order to support the integration of telecommunication services with difference characteristics. Service priority contral selects the connection to output a cell among all connections destined to the same ontput port. Discard priority contral selects the connection to discard a cell when the shared buffer is full. In this paper we present a VLSI design of a priority arbitrator for shared buffer ATM switches. This priority arbitrator is targeted to support our new service priority control scheme, reactive bandwidth arbitration (RBA), and new discard priority control scheme, local pushout discarding (LPD). The priority arbitrator is designed for an 8x8 shared buffer ATM switch with four priority classes per port and a link rate of 622 Mbps. The chip has BOk gates in a chip area of B7.88 mm using 0.6 J.Lm CMOS technology.

Generalized Priority Queue Manager Design for ATM Switches*
Our concern is the problem of efficiently supporting multiple QOS requirements in ATM networks. A queue manager in ATM network nodes schedules cells’ transmission based on their urgencies at the decision moment, while it controls buffer access based on the cells’ loss priorities. In this paper, we propose a generalized priority queue manager (GPQM) which supports multiple QOS requirements in cl...
متن کاملA scalable priority queue manager architecture for output-buffered ATM switches
We describe a scalable priority queue manager that implements deadline-ordered service disciplines in an output-buffered ATM switch, which can be used as a switching node in high-speed packet switched networks to provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees. The priority queue manager can handle a range of priority levels from to , a buffer size of 64K ATM cells, and 16 input links at 2.5 Gb/s. ...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of a New Queuing Architecture for Large-Scale ATM Switches
The authors study the different buffering techniques used in the literature to solve the contention problem in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switching architectures. The objective of this study is to determine the buffer requirements needed to achieve a given quality of service (e.g., a given cell loss probability). On the basis of this study, the authors propose a combined central and outpu...
متن کاملModelling and Performance Analysis of Shared Buffer ATM Switches with Hot-Spot Pushout under Bursty Traffic
Shared buffer switches have many advantages such as relatively low cell loss rate and good buffer utilization, and they are increasingly favoured in recent VLSI switch designs for ATM. However, their performance degrades dramatically under nonuniform traffic due to the monopolization of the buffer by some favoured cells. To overcome this, restricted types of sharing and Hot-Spot-PushOut (HSPO) ...
