Popis: We present a novel distributed algorithm which provides QoS by only enabling free-of-cycles routes which are known to ensure network stability. Network stability is synonymous of QoS as allows to deterministically bound maximum delays and backlogs. Cycles are avoided by disabling the use of pair of input-output links around a node (turns). This method improves network utilization compared to previous solutions, which avoids cycles by forbidding the use of whole links.
