Packet switching is a network transmission method that sees data sent in small blocks called packets rather than as a continuous stream. Sending data in this way helps to improve the robustness and ...

Packet-switching networks -- networks which break data up into chunks called packets before transport -- help make your business communications stable and efficient. Once used only for data ...

Packet switching equipment is a comparably young market with merely 20 years of evolution. At the core of packet switching equipment lays the switch fabric; this single sub-system is probably the most ...

Fragment-free switching is also known as runtless switching and is a hybrid of cut-through and store-and-forward switching. Fragment-free switching was developed to solve the late-collision problem. A ...

Integrated circuit technologies are enabling intelligent, chip-based, optical packet switch matrices. Rapid real-time re-configurability at the photonic layer using integrated circuit technologies is ...

Paul Baran, whose Cold War era invention of packet switching technology helped to lay the foundation for the Internet, has died at the age of 84. Paul Baran, whose Cold War era invention of packet ...

Switching systems continue to be called on to deliver higher packet throughputs and higher quality-of-service levels. Switching circuits controlling the data flow must perform more and more packet ...
