Techniques which may be used to (1) design and construct a switching device characterized by both reduced buffer space requirements and the ability to handle self-similar traffic and (2) enable a switch to maintain performance standards while experiencing higher levels of self-similar traff ic are disclosed herein have been achieved by a discover that below a certain utilization factor threshold value of approximately 38%, the size of the buffer space needed to handle self-similar traffic is less than that commonly believed while, above that utilization factor threshold value, the size of t he buffer space needed to handle self-similar traffic is greater than that commonly believed.
