TL;DR: This survey categorizes ATP mechanisms according to their working principles, use cases, and implementation technology to discuss advantages and disadvantages of the surveyed ATP mechanisms, and presents a discussion on challenges and future research.

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel architecture: a combined input-one-cell-crosspoint buffer crossbar (CIXB-1) with virtual output queues (VOQs) at the inputs and round-robin arbitration that can provide 100% throughput under uniform traffic.

TL;DR: A novel architecture, a combined input-crosspoint-output buffered (CIXOB-k, where k is the size of the crosspoint buffer) Switch, which provides 100% throughput under uniform and unbalanced traffic and provides timing relaxation and scalability.

TL;DR: Two round-robin-based dispatching schemes to overcome the throughput limitation of the RD scheme are presented and it is shown that CMSD preserves the advantages of CRRD, reduces the scheduling time by 30% or more when arbitration time is significant and has a dramatically reduced number of crosspoints of the interconnection wires between round- robin arbiters in the dispatching scheduler with a ratio of 1/√N.

TL;DR: This paper forms the assignments of tasks to servers as an integer-programming problem with the objective of minimizing the energy consumed by the servers of the data center, and proves that the use of a greedy task scheduler bounds the constraint service time whilst minimizing the number of active servers.
