A novel high-performance packet-switching architecture, called the knockout switch, has been recently proposed. It is a nonblocking, cost-effective switch suitable for broadband packet switching. The authors give equations which can be used to derive the packet loss probability and investigate the knockout switch under various uniform traffic patterns. They also compare the knockout switch with the multistage switch under various nonuniform traffic patterns.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
