| Current estimates and measurements predict that Internet traffic will continue to grow for many years to come. Driving this growth is the fact that the Internet has moved from a convenience to a mission-critical platform for conducting and succeeding in business. In addition, the provision of advanced broadband services to end users will continue to cultivate and prolong this growth in the future. As a result, there is a great demand for gigabit/terabit routers and switches (IP routers, ATM switches, Ethernet switches) that knit together the constituent networks of the global Internet, creating the illusion of a unified whole. These switches/routers must not only have an aggregate capacity of gigabits/terabits coupled with forwarding rates of billions of packets per second, but they must also deal with nontrivial issues such as scheduling support for differentiated services, a wide variety of interface types, scalability in terms of capacity and port density, and backward compatibility with a wide range of legacy packet formats and routing protocols. This edited book is a modest attempt to provide a comprehensive venue for advancing, analyzing, and debating the technologies required to address the abovementioned challenges, such as scaling the Internet and improving its capabilities. In particular, this book is a collection of chapters covering a wide range of aspects pertaining to the design, analysis, and evolution of high-performance Internet switches and routers. Some of the topics include switching fabrics, network processors, optical packet switching and advanced protocol design. The authors of these chapters are some of the leading researchers in the field. As a result, it is our hope that this book will be perceived as a valuable resource to as many readers as possible including university professors and students, researchers from industry, and consultancy companies.
