The scheduling algorithm used in a network switch significantly impacts the switch's performance and thereby the performance of the entire network. To keep up with the ongoing demands for higher network performance, a myriad of scheduling algorithms have been investigated. We propose that FPGAs can be outstanding candidates for benchmarking scheduling algorithms, and that it can be beneficial to have customized scheduling algorithms which are enabled by FPGA based switches due to their reconfigurable architectures. This paper presents the first FPGA targeted survey on high performance scheduling algorithms used in the most popular switch architecture, input-buffered crossbars, with the aim of guiding future research on high performance network switching.
