Computer Simulations for Stability Analysis of a Numerical Procedure for Crossbar Packet Switch

Abstract The paper is concerned with the problem of calculating the bound of the throughput (THR) of a crossbar packet switch. For this purpose a suitable numerical procedure is used. The input data for the procedure are the results of computer simulations executed on a grid-computational structure (www.hpc.acad.bg). The modeling of the THR uses MiMa-algorithm for a crossbar packet switch, specified by the apparatus of Generalized Nets. For studying the stability of the numerical procedure we use a modified family of patterns for i.i.d. Bernoulli uniform load traffic simulation. The obtained results show that the numerical procedure is stable which means that small input perturbations result in small changes in the output.
