Explosion of the Internet pushes the demand of bandwidth to a critical point. Various technologies on opical fibre system enhance the transmission bandwidth in the worldwide communication system. But, a high transmission bandwidth network reveals its bottleneck on the switching bandwidth - how to switch singal and data in tight time bound in various fashions. Existing router and switch vendors use network flow probability models to simulate the performance and blocking probability of a switching matrix design. This trial and error approach has no guarantee on the performance and implementation complexity. Prof. Li breaks a new ground by using algebra calculation in the switching fibric representation. By his 20+ years research, his algebra algorithm has an unique ability in handling non-blocking switching, Time-Space-Time 3-phase switching and concentrator/sorter implementation. And he suggests some interesting implementation oriented design in reducing implementation complexity in a manhatten VLSI layout. This book covers Prof. Li's lifetime work and his research in switching, probability models and information theory. It worths any information engineers for a deep look, and it's a fanastic reference book for any switching researchers... Comment | | (Report this)
