Abstract:
An information switch comprises a plurality of input circuits and a plurality of output circuits, the information switch being configured to communicate information units between the input circuits and the output circuits in successive transmission cycles; each input circuit being configured, in dependence upon a queue of one or more information units for transmission via that input circuit and in dependence upon hint data received in respect of a current transmission cycle, to send an information unit transmission request to one or more of the output circuits; and each output circuit being configured, in response to one or more information unit transmission requests received from respective input circuits, to select an input circuit for information unit transmission to that output circuit in a current transmission cycle and to provide hint data indicating a provisional selection, by that output circuit, of an input circuit at a next transmission cycle.

Claim (Index 9):
An information switch according to  claim 8 , in which the circuit selection algorithm is a round robin algorithm.
