Abstract:In the paper we study the conditions under which multiconnection networks are nonblocking. A multiconnection network deals with the connections of pairs {{T\,Ti)} where T\ is a subset of the input terminals and Ti is a subset of the output terminals. We investigate networks composed of digital switching matrices. Such networks can be treated as a very general case encompassing many kinds of networks used in practice as well as studied theoretically.We present four routing strategies and then develop conditions… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
