Question: 7 . Consider a 1 6 * 1 6 Banyan network. Two cells enter the switch and are to be switched during the same switching

7. Consider a 16*16 Banyan network. Two cells enter the switch and are to be switched during the same switching cycle.
(a)[5 Marks] Schedule the 16*16 Banyan Network.
(b)[6 Marks] Determine the probability that there will be blocking if the output destinations are randomly selected from the 16 outputs with each output being equally likely, assuming that
(i) the two cells arrive at inputs 4 and 5,
(ii) the two cells arrive at inputs 0 and 11, and
(iii) the two cells arrive at any two inputs. (c)[4 Marks] Assume now that the two cells come into the switch destined for outputs 4(100) and 5(101). Determine the probability, across all possible input combinations for the 2 cells, that there will be blocking.
