Application of the technique of statistical line grouping to banyan-type networks to practically alleviate the problems of output contention, traffic fluctuation, burstiness, and so forth without incurring additional preprocessing and buffering on the input traffic by introducing alternate-routing ingredient to the unique-routing banyan-type network, but does not complicate the switching control too much through alternate routing. The concentrator composed of interconnected routing cells is employed to fill in each of the dilated nodes of the banyan-type network to give a hybrid network. An extremely simple self-routing control mechanism over the hybrid network which is the natural melting of the self-routing control inside the concentrators and the self-routing control over the banyan-type network is presented.
