Delta Network
• The delta network is one example of a multistage interconnection network that can be used as a switch fabric
• The delta network is an example of a banyan network
• In banyan networks, there is a single path from each input port to each output port
• A delta network looks like the following...

Self Routing
• Delta network has self-routing property
• The path for a cell to take to reach its destination can be determined directly from its routing tag (i.e., destination port id)
• Stage k of the MIN looks at bit k of the tag
• If bit k is 0, then send cell out upper port
• If bit k is 1, then send cell out lower port
• Works for every possible input port (really!)

Output Port Contention• Up to now, all examples have worked wonderfully
because each incoming cell was destined to a different output port
• What happens if more than one cell destined to same output port?
• Answer: output port contention
• Result: cell loss in a bufferless network
• Alternatives: buffering, deflection routing, recirculation, tandem banyans, ...

Output Port Contention
36
Path Contention• It is also possible for two incoming cells that are
destined to different output ports to require the same internal link in the switch
• Called path contention or internal blocking
• Again, the result in a bufferless switch fabric is cell loss (one cell wins, one loses)
• Path contention and output port contention can seriously degrade the achievable throughput of the switch

A Solution: Batcher Sorter
• One solution to the contention problem is to sort the cells into monotonically increasing order based on desired destination port
• Done using a bitonic sorter called a Batcher
• Places the M cells into gap-free increasing sequence on the first M input ports
• Eliminates duplicate destinations
