Abstract
This paper proposes and analyzes the efficiency of novel backpressure schemes for Terabit switch fabrics. The proposed schemes aim at buffer optimization under uniform traffic distribution with Bernoulli packet arrival process. Results show that a reduction of the needed maximum buffer capacity with up to 47% can be achieved with switch-internal backpressure mechanisms at the expense of a small control overhead.
