Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system that schedules the transfer of cells in a switch. The system starts by receiving a set of cells to be transferred from a set of inputs of the switch to a set of outputs of the switch. The system includes S subschedulers, wherein each subscheduler processes N scheduling waves in sequence to generate a conflict-free transfer schedule for a given time slot for a matrix of transfer elements in the switch. The system then operates the subschedulers in parallel to generate S transfer schedules to transfer the cells from the set of inputs of the switch to the set of outputs of the switch during S time slots.
