Abstract
A neural network implementation of an input access scheme in a high-speed packet switch for broadband ISDN (integrated services digital network) is presented. In this switch, each input maintains a separate queue for each output; thus, in an (n*n) switch there will be n/sup 2/ input queues. Using synchronous operation, at most one packet per input and output will be transferred at every slot. A neural network maximizing the throughput of this switch is determined, and the form of the energy function, its optimized parameters, and the connection matrix are given. Simulations with random inputs have yielded results close to optimal throughput. This neural network can be implemented with the existing technology for medium switching sizes. >

The iSLIP scheduling algorithm for input-queued switches

TL;DR: This paper presents a scheduling algorithm called iSLIP, an iterative, round-robin algorithm that can achieve 100% throughput for uniform traffic, yet is simple to implement in hardware, and describes the implementation complexity of the algorithm.

Achieving 100% throughput in an input-queued switch

TL;DR: This paper introduces two maximum weight matching algorithms: longest queue first (LQF) and oldest cell first (OCF), which achieve 100% throughput for all independent arrival processes.

Neural networks for switching

TL;DR: The author argues that a strong impetus for using neural networks is that they provide a framework for designing massively parallel machines and presents two switching applications in which neural networks can solve the problems efficiently.

Neural networks and physical systems with emergent collective computational abilities

TL;DR: A model of a system having a large number of simple equivalent components, based on aspects of neurobiology but readily adapted to integrated circuits, produces a content-addressable memory which correctly yields an entire memory from any subpart of sufficient size.

Neurons with graded response have collective computational properties like those of two-state neurons.

TL;DR: A model for a large network of "neurons" with a graded response (or sigmoid input-output relation) is studied and collective properties in very close correspondence with the earlier stochastic model based on McCulloch - Pitts neurons are studied.

The capacity of the Hopfield associative memory

TL;DR: In this paper, the capacity of Hopfield associative memory was studied under the assumption that every one of the m fundamental memories can be recoverable exactly, with the added restriction that all the m original memories be exactly recoverable.
