Abstract: This paper studies the scaling of the expected total queue size in an nimesn input-queued switch, as a function of both the load ho and the system scale n. We provide a new class of scheduling policies under which the expected total queue size scales as Oleft(n(1ho)4/3logleft(maxfrac11ho,night)ight), over all n and ho<1, when the arrival rates are uniform. This improves over the previously best-known scalings in two regimes: Oleft(n1.5(1ho)1logfrac11hoight) when Omega(n1.5)le1holeO(n1) and Oleft(fracnlogn(1ho)2ight) when 1hogeqOmega(n1). A key ingredient in our method is a tight characterization of the largest k-factor of a random bipartite multigraph, which may be of independent interest.
