What are single stage and multistage networks, Computer Engineering

Assignment Help:

What are single stage and multistage networks? Compare the strengths and weaknesses of each.

OR

List the major difference in single stage, two stages and three stage Networks. Also discuss their blocking characteristics.

Single Stage Vs. Multistage Network.

Sr. No.

 

Single Stage

 

Multi Stage

 

1.

Inlet to outlet connection is by a single cross point.

Inlet to Outlet connection is by

multiple cross points

 

2.

Utilization of single cross point per connection

results in better quality link.

Utilization of multiple cross points may

degrade the quality of a connection.

 

 

3.

 

All individual cross point can be utilized for only single inlet/outlet pair connection.

Similar cross point can be used establish connection in between a number of inlet/outlet pairs.

 

 

4.

 

An exact cross point is required for each exact connection.

An exact connection may be established through using sets of cross points.

 

 

5.

If a cross points fails, connected connection cannot be establish. Means there is no redundancy.

 

Alternative paths and cross-points are available.

 

 

 

 

6.

Cross points are incompetently used. Only one cross point in every row or column of a triangular or square switch matrix is even in utilize, even if every line is active.

 

 

 

Cross points are used

Efficiently

 

7.

Number of cross points is

Prohibitive

Number of cross points

is reduced considerably

 

 

8.

A huge number of cross points in every inlet/outlet leads to capacitive loading.

 

There is no problem of capacitive loading

 

9.

The network is non-blocking

in nature

The network is blocking

in nature

10.

Less Time for establishing a call.

More time for establishing a call.
