With effective packet-scheduling mechanisms, modern integrated networks can support the
diverse quality-of-service requirements of emerging applications. However, arbitrating …

Wireless and mobile networks have experienced great success over the past few years.
However, any single type of wireless and mobile network cannot provide all types of …

In this paper, we present a fast and scalable pipelined priority queue architecture for use in
high-performance switches with support for fine grained quality of service (QoS) guarantees …

Push-In-First-Out (PIFO) queue has been extensively studied as a programmable scheduler.
To achieve accurate, large-scale, and high-throughput PIFO implementation, we propose …

Limited search trellis decoding algorithms have great potentials of realizing low power due
to their largely reduced computational complexity compared with the widely used Viterbi …

All recently proposed packet-scheduling algorithms for output-buffered switches that support
quality-of-service (QoS) transmit packets in some priority order, eg, according to deadlines …

We present a trellis-based maximum-likelihood soft-decision sequential decoding algorithm
(MLSDA) for binary convolutional codes. Simulation results show that, for (2, 1, 6) and (2, 1 …

A fast, scalable hardware earliest deadline first (EDF) link scheduler for ATM switching
network is developed. This EDF scheduler is a fast hardware solution suitable for real time …

A sequential decoder for linear block codes that performs maximum-likelihood soft-decision
decoding is described. The decoder uses a metric computed from a lower bound on the cost …

This paper presents a fast systolic priority queue architecture usable in a traffic manager.
The purpose of the traffic manager is to schedule the departure of packets on egress ports in …
