ABSTRACT:
A technique for accommodating packets of different lengths at minimal cost to hardware complexity with a self-routing switch primitive with an associated switching mechanism that accommodates packets of different lengths encapsulated in a new packet format. The switch primitive, along with a new packet format, effects the self-routing such packets through a switching fabric constructed from the interconnection of the self-routing switching primitives.
