Abstract
Disclosed is a network for steering signals on a plurality of input signal lines, some of which are signal carrying and the remaining are idle, so that the signal carrying lines are grouped at adjacent ones of the network's output. The steering of all input lines is done simultaneously by concurrently computing for all lines the required steering in an adder network and executing the steering of all lines simultaneously in a routing network responsive to the adder network.
