The primary goal for developing high performance ATM switching systems is to minimized the probability of cell loss, cell delay and deterioration of throughput. ATM switching element that is the most suitable for this purpose is the shared buffer memory switch executed by common random access memory and control logic. Since it is difficult to manufacture VLIS(Very Large Scale Integrated circuit) as the number of input ports increased, the used of switching module method the realizes 32$\times$32, 150 Mb/s switch utilizing 8$\times$8, 600Mb/s os 16$\times$16, 150Mb/s unit switch is latest ATM switching technology for small and large scale. In this paper, buffer capacity satisfying total-memory-reduction effect by buffer sharing in a shared buffer memory switch are analytically evalu ated and simulated by computer with cell loss level at traffic conditions, and also features of switching network utilizing the switching module methods in small and large-capacity ATM switching system is analized. Based on this results, the structure in outline of 32$\times$32(4.9Gb/s throughput), 150Mb/s switches under research in many countries is proposed, and eventually, switching-network structure for ATM switching system of small and large and capacity satisfying with above primary goals is suggested.

This paper proposes an efficient dynamic routing algorithm for Multistage Bus Networks(MBN's) in distributed shared memory environment. Our algorithm utilizes extra paths available on MBN and determines routing paths adaptively according to switch traffic in order to distribute traffic among switches. Precisely, a packet is transmitted to the next switch on an extra path having a lighter traffic. As a consequence the proposed algorithm reduces the mean response time and the average number of waiting tasks. The results of simulations, carried out with varying numbers of processors and varying switch sizes, show that the proposed algorithm improves the mean response time by 9% and the average number of waiting tasks by 21.6%, compared to the existing routing algorithms which do not consider extra paths on MBN.

Most of the existing SoCs have shared bus architecture which always has a bottleneck state. The more IPs are in an SOC, the less performance it is of the SOC, Therefore, its performance is effected by the entire communication rather than CPU speed. In this paper, we propose cross-bar switch bus architecture for the reduction of the bottleneck state and the improvement of the performance. The cross-bar switch bus supports up to 8 masters and 16 slaves and parallel communication with architecture of multiple channel bus. Each slave has an arbiter which stores priority information about masters. So, it prevents only one master occupying one slave and supports efficient communication. We compared WISHBONE on-chip shared bus architecture with crossbar switch bus architecture of the SOC platform, which consists of an OpenRISC processor, a VGA/LCD controller, an AC97 controller, a debug interface, a memory interface, and the performance improved by 26.58% than the previous shared bus.

This paper proposes an efficient network architecture for reflective memory system (RMS). Using this architecture, the time for broadcasting a shared-data to all nodes can be significantly shortened. The device named topology conversion switch (TCS) is implemented to realize the network architecture. The implemented TCS is applied to the ethernet based real time control network (ERCnet) to evaluate the performance.

As the increasing integrity of VLSI, the BIST(Built-In Self Test) is used as an effective method to test chips. Generally the pseudo-random test pattern generation is used for BIST. But it requires too many test patterns when there exist random This paper proposes and presents a new efficient network architecture for Reflective Memory System (RMS). A time to copy shared-data among nodes effects critically on the entire performance of the RMS. In this paper, the recent researches about the RMS are investigated and compared. The device named Topology Conversion Switch(TCS) is introduced to realize the proposed network architecture. One of the RMS based industrial control networks, Ethernet based Real-time Control Network (ERCnet), is adopted to evaluate the performance of the proposed network architecture for RMS.

The efficienty of ATM is based on the statical multiplexing of fixed-length packets, which are called cells. The most important technical point for realizing ATM switching network is an arrangement of the buffers and switches. Current most ATM switching networks are being achieved by using the switching modules based on the unit switch of $8{\times}8$ 150Mb/s or $16{\times}16$ 150Mb/s, the unit switch of $32{\times}32$150Mb/s for a large scale system is under study in many countries. In this paper, we proposed a new $32{\times}32$(4.9Gb/s throughput) ATM switch using Shared buffer memory switch which provides superior traffic characteristics in the cell loss, delay and throughput performance and easy LSI(Large Scale Integrated circuit). We analytically estimated and simulated by computer the buffer size into it. We also proposed the configuration of the large capacity ATM switching network($M{\times}M$.M>1,000) consisting of multistage to improve the link speed by non-blocking.

A multicast traffic’s feature is the function of providing a point to multipoints cell transmission, which is emerging from the main function of ATM switch. However, when a conventional point-to-point switch executes a multicast function, the excess load is occurred because unicast cell as well as multicast cell passed the copy network. Additionally, due to the excess load, multicast cells collide with other cells in a switch. Thus a deadlock that losses cells raises, extremely diminishes the performance of switch. An input queued switch also has a defect of the HOL (Head of Line) blocking that less lessens the performance of the switch. In the proposed multicast switch, we use shared memory switch to reduce HOL blocking and deadlock. In order to decrease switch’s complexity and cell's processing time, to improve a throughput, we utilize the method that routes a cell on a separated paths by traffic pattern and the scheduling algorithm that processes a maximum 2N cell at once in the control part. Besides, when cells is congested at an output port, a cell loss probability increases. Thus we use the Output Memory (OM) to reduce the cell loss probability. And we make use of the method that stores the assigned memory (UM, MM) with a cell by a traffic pattern and clears the cell of the Output memory after a fixed saving time to improve the memory utilization rate. The performance of the proposed switch is executed and compared with the conventional policy under the burst traffic condition through both the analysis based on Markov chain and simulation.

Virtualization is a promising approach to consolidating multiple online services onto a smaller number of computing resources. A virtualized server environment allows computing resources to be shared among multiple performance isolated platforms called virtual machines. Through server virtualization software, applications servers are encapsulated into VMs, and deployed with APIs on top generalized pools of CPU and memory resources. Networking and security have been moved to a software abstraction layer that transformed computing, network virtualization. And it paves the way for enterprise to rapidly deploy networking and security for any application by creating the virtual network. Stochastic reward net (SRN) is an extension of stochastic Petri nets which provides compact modeling facilities for system analysis. In this paper, we develop SRN model of network virtualization based on virtual switch. Measures of interest such as switching delay and throughput are considered. These measures are expressed in terms of the expected values of reward rate functions for SRNs. Numerical results are obtained according to the virtual switch capacity and number of active VMs.
