Abstract
A network device of a network environment may support burst switched technology. The network device may comprise a burst generator, a scheduler, and a content addressable memory to allocate the bursts to earliest available time slots. The burst generator may generate bursts, which may comprise packets having a common destination address. The scheduler may generate one or more content addressable memory entries comprising bits, which represent the time slots, generate key based on the size of the burst, and allocating the bursts to the earliest available time slots. The available time slots may be determined by comparing the key with the content addressable memory entries.
