Abstract

In this paper, queue designs for true fully adaptive routers are explored. The proposed DAMQWR and VCDAMQ designs are aimed at exploiting the full capabilities of adaptive routing. Their effects on overall network cost and performance are evaluated analytically and by simulation. We show that DAMQWR best supports true fully adaptive routing capability by dynamically and efficiently managing queue and network resources, resulting in the highest network performance. Results show that up to 20% higher throughput can be obtained in comparison to traditional DAMQ designs.
