A Router Architecture comprises plural components of Slice enabling Energy Consumption Reduction

The complete network service of infrastructure is an urgent issue by means of continuous growth in network traffic. Apparently, the energy consumption of network routers may arise one of global environmental affairs, and therefore Research and Development works regarding power reduction is well desired. Our group proposes a unique feature embedded onto routers, which consists of plurality of slice, and is dynamically controlled by the prediction of network traffic flow. In this paper, we've examined slice control and LSI architecture, and have shown the validity of slice-architectural router.
