In this paper we propose a novel scaling approach that combines the advantages of the fully decoupled Birkhoff-von Neumann architecture and the low latency of maximal size matching (MSM) schedulers, to meet the highly demanding performance requirements of electro-optical switches. We identify a sufficient condition for the stability of a decoupled MSM scheduler. The particular case of decoupled iSLIP is studied.
