Title
Strictly nonblocking three-stage Clos networks with some rearrangeable multicast capability
Abstract
F.K. Hwang and S.C. Liaw (see IEEE/ACM Trans. Networking, vol.8, p.535-9, 2000) introduced a new nonblocking requirement for 2-cast traffic which imposes different requirements on different types of coexisting calls. The requirement is strictly nonblocking for point-to-point calls among the 2-cast traffic, and is rearrangeable for genuine 2-cast calls. We generalize the 2-cast calls to multicast calls and give a sufficient condition for such networks when the number of multicast calls is upper bounded.
